Howdy everyone,
My parents took me on many great road trips when I was a kid and I think that eventually lead to my career in the tourism industry. My summer job through high school and college was at Crazy Horse Memorial in the Black Hills of South Dakota (American Road Volume V, No. 1).
I now am the senior photographer for the South Dakota Office of Tourism. That means I travel the state taking pictures of fairs, festivals, attractions, landscapes, wildlife, rodeos, powwos, etc, etc. After 15 years of the job, I'm really getting to know the backroads and byways of South Dakota. So, if you are interested in photography tips about this neck of the woods, visit my blog at www.dakotagraph.blogspot.com. Hopefully you will find something interesting or maybe even useful there.
I also branch outside of South Dakota from time to time. I'm sure you all know about that itching for a road trip. Wyoming and Colorado have seen a lot of my tire tracks.
And I've noticed several members of the Class of '81 on the forum. I fit that category as well. It's a little off topic for this forum, but if you are interested in the music of our era, you might also enjoy my concert photography blog at www.chadsconcertpix.blogspot.com.
If anyone has any questions about anything in South Dakota, feel free to fire away. I love helping travelers and/or photographers.
