    do you yearn for wide open spaces? no sign of human habitation for as far as you can see? no sound but the wind and a few birds maybe even the coyotes at sunset? head to the badlands.. you wont be dissappointed.. I found the place enchanting…..

    oh yeah.. another duck? heres a scaup for ya… funny thing about ducks.. they dont seem to want to have things pointed at them by people… makes them really tough to “shoot”….. but I got some serious telephoto stuff now…. so I can reach out to them…..

    ohhh and the road? its over by me here in Wisconsin….. near a tiny lake named Dwight Lake…..
