A wide-ranging conversation about the whole world

Hi, everybody. I’m back from eight days in South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado. If you’ve never seen this part of the country, it’s well worth it. Besides the history, the wildlife is incredible. I can’t tell you how many time I had to stop my car to let bison and elk pass. I saw three wild bighorn sheep, more than a thousand antelope, prairie dogs, mule deer, and more white tail than I could count. The only downside was that my son and I used Deadwood, South Dakota as our base. I love Deadwood. I’ve been there before. But I had no idea that this past week was also the annual Sturgis motorcycle rally. So we had to share the town of 1500 with 500,000 people on Harley Davidsons. It was very loud.
