We rode 78 miles from Kadoka to Presto, a very pleasant, low drama day. Our route was the old highway which parallels the Interstate, so we encountered almost no traffic. In addition, it was overcast and cool most of the way, and no wind! About halfway into the route, our clocks changed themselves to the third time zone of the trip.
We are staying in a rather upscale hunting lodge with space that works well for our group. The decor is another matter. Some taxidermist has made a lot of money on the wall decorations here, but not all the critters are stuffed. In what we hope is a very secure glass enclosure, there are five rattlesnakes lazing about, which explains why the place is called Snake Den Lodge.
Deserted houses and even deserted towns are a common sight.
