In South Dakota

We just returned from a road trip to Indiana and Nebraska. We were on the interstate highways a LOT. Now, one nice thing about interstate highways is the availability of rest areas. They vary from state to state, but offer an opportunity to stand up, walk around, and, if you're like me, take pictures! These shots were from one rest area in South Dakota. The frame of a concrete teepee...

This looks like it could have been set up as a sundial, too!

Shadow Shot Sunday

South Dakota is dry, but you do find trees!

Scenic Sunday

I think the Indians used notches like you see here, but probably not bolts and wire!

6/26/11 Note: Spadoman (see his comment below) informs me that they didn"t use notches, but that the poles were tied together. Thanks for educating me!

Spring Beauty

 

These were taken outside my daughter and son-in-law's apartment in Bloomington, Indiana, the first evening we were there. I had to interrupt the conversation and excuse myself, the light was so beautiful shining through the leaves and seeds of this tree!
