Pics of the Prairie

Bluff overlooking Lake Oahe near Sitting Bull Monument on Hwy 1806

First day report

Well, as usual most of the day was spent setting up camp and doing the necessary repairs and equipment stuff. We did however, saddle up a couple horses and head out across the prairies to assess the conditions - we found lots of birds, just riding through with our horses (no dogs) as well as deer and other denizens of the prairie.

I went running and Preston followed me - he had incidental contact with 3 pheasants (they got up as I ran by) short chases followed - and he did point really nice - looking at a lark on the fence.

Loving it here - I am so psyched

Well, a cool morning here in SD - I am soo psyched - We had a couple blowouts coming up in the extreme heat of the Panhandle - but all the dogs and horses made the journey great - we have lots to do - permits and birds to get in the next few days - repairs to things and such.

We have arrived

Well, we arrived at camp in Timber Lake at about 11 am today. We have all the dogs fed/watered and bedded down - we have seen bunches of birds already and we are excited by the cover and conditions around camp

I am getting anxious

The trailer is ready now. Most all the packing is done, the dogs continue to arrive and me and Daniel are less than a week away from being back at camp for another summer on the beautiful prairies of South Dakota.

Life is good.
