Empty Nesters ~On the Road Again ~This Time to Rapid City

Hubby had a work assignment in the Black Hills.
He invited me to go along and be tourists for the weekend 
before he had to report to the office.

Stopping in Pierre at the State Capitol 
is a great chance to get out of the car and stretch our legs.

We walked around to the far side of the pond.
Hubby tried to interest the ducks with his sunflower seeds.

We also discovered this beautiful fountain area.
I wish we could have spent more time there.

On the way out of town, we drove past the Oahe Dam.
It is known to be one of the largest earthen dams. 
This is the view to the north.


This is the view across the road to the south.

We were able to drive down closer to the water.

There were families on both sides sides of the road... 
boating, fishing, and swimming,

We enjoyed our little road trip. 
I am glad I could accompany hubby on his work trip. 
Stay tuned for photos of our trip out to Mount Rushmore.

Take care,
~Natalie
