Caught a movie this afternoon and now we're enjoying beers and pizza. Probably should have done something outside to take advantage of the sunshine and warm temperatures, but somehow I'm not complaining. . . . . #rapidcity #rapidcitysd #blackhillsbadlands #hifromsd

They don't call this the City of Presidents for nothing. Happy holiday if you're lucky enough to be off work! . . . . #rapidcity #rapidcitysd #blackhillsbadlands #hifromsd #southdakota #sodak #midwestlife #southdakotagram #greatfacesgreatplaces #greatplains #aliveinthe605 #midwestisbest
Love this souvenir from my road trip out west with the family a few years ago. Sure, there were a few setbacks along the way: our credit cards were reported lost, the dog wet on the picnic basket, we lost a dear family member (though the Hindus speak of karma), and - unbeknownst to us at the time - America's favorite family fun park was closed for two weeks for cleaning and repair. But I was able to convince a jolly security guard to let us ride the rollercoaster anyway. We ended up having so much f*cking fun we needed plastic surgery to remove our g*ddamn smiles! . . . . #walleyworld #clarkgriswold #nationallampoonsvacation #martymoose #holidayroad #dancingacrosstheusa
