Two Flew out of the Cuckoo Nest

As we are about to enter the 5th month of the Chinese Flu my wife and I are starting to get more than a little tired of all the drama, hysteria and hyperbole surrounding it so we decided to go on a road trip. Luckily we live in South Dakota and have a governor who treats us like adults and hasn’t placed any restriction on us so we are free to travel as we wish. So we started by taking a trip down memory lane. Bard on the Plains My Website Photo by Leio McLaren (@leiomclaren) on Unsplash
