Heya folks,

I'm working an office shift here at work, so I don't have a whole lot of time, but thought I'd jump on here quickly, to let you all know, I'm still alive and kicking. The trip to the Badlands and Black Hills, SD went really well... Lu and I both had a great time hiking through the Badlands and seeing all the historic downtowns of Deadwood, Lead and Custer, and driving in and around the Black Hills National Forest. It was beautiful out there and we both have LOTS of pictures to share with you all. I'll have pictures uploaded within the next couple of days to the gallery.

Yesterday was an exhausting day with the spelunking tour at Jewel Cave and the drive home... and I'm currently (still) nursing the cold I've been suffering through and now aches and pains from the cave tour! Ugh! ;)

I'll write more later tonight and tomorrow with a much more detailed look at our experiences this past weekend.

Hope all is well!
