Thankfully I'm here a week plus two weekends -- until Halloween. I was in the black hills and then the center of the state for a gravel roads research project this past week, and I have a project here in Sioux Falls next week. Then I have one more gravel roads site to inspect at the beginning of November and I get to go home! Of course, at that point, there will be a 12-13 hour drive standing between me and Denver, but Stefano will be home waiting for me so it'll totally be worth it. Yep, we're both going to be home. At the same time. It's like magic. Molly might just die from happiness.
What's worse than driving through extremely rural South Dakota where the only good radio is NPR? Driving through that area during NPR pledge month. Gah. Thankfully I had my iPod and the cable to hook it to the stereo, but I really prefer cruising radio stations and listening to NPR stuff while I'm driving.

| The test site I was at near Custer was pretty close to where they're carving Crazy Horse monument so I snagged a picture of it on my way out of town. |
Oh, and for those of you who don't stalk/follow me on Google+, I took a detour through the South Dakota badlands on my way from Custer to Miller. Pretty awesome; I'll need to come back with Stefano some day. Pics after the break.
