The greeting committee on the bird watching path. I really took this picture, it is not an Afflac copyright violation!

This was a day that started with no agenda what so ever and ended up being a lot of fun.

Incidents and Rider Report:
Richard from Wisconsin flew home today and is flying back tonight at 11pm. Apparently he had something up at home. The story goes he is a chemist, doesn’t own a car and rides his bike everywhere. I’ve not verified all that, but it would fit in with this group.

Stuff that happened:
I sort of did a photo journal of Sioux Falls. This place is much more interesting that I would have thought. I hope to download a slide show for you to review if you’d like in youtube with a link to this blog. The fun part was I did it all by myself on foot, hiking from 8:30am to 5:30 pm along the nicely groomed bird watching paths that are all throughout the city. I visited a church service and the zoo.
I also visited the USS South Dakota Memorial, Japanese gardens, the Sioux Falls Falls and a very nice Italian restaurant. Throughout the day I was able to spend most of it chatting with friends and family on the cell phone, taking pictures and absorbing Sioux Falls. My rear end especially enjoyed it I think. Tomorrow, back to the mission!
In a neighborhood I walked through on my way to the falls I found this coffin in a front yard. How would you like to have this fellow for a neighbor?

Hi Ralphie,
I love the various types of pictures that you take to go along with the blogs. I felt sorry for the animals in the zoo. It didn't look very animal friendly. You look good though.
Love,Catherine
