    My Journey

    After nearly 60 miles of dirt & gravel roads, we ended our day camped about a mile north of Buffalo Camp.....which is the other campground provided by the American Prairie Reserve (and also not open yet).....

    If dogs could talk, I suppose that my best friends might tell you that we walked way too many miles along that gravel road during our short stay here.....but honestly, that's just what I enjoy doing so much these days.....especially when out in the prairie..... There's just much beauty out...

    Foy.....yep, it's a good town.....and they have good sammiches.....

This winter I took a liking to...
