MMAP Nisland, S.D. End of First Week
The end of the first week here in Nisland has come! The time is really going fast!
The siding has been removed,
the eaves repaired with new eaves installed,
and weather stripping and water guards have been installed around the windows.
Every day there are literally thousands of motorcycles going past from dawn to dusk and beyond! We heard there were over 900,000 bikers registered! I thought I took a movie of them going by, but being new to the camera, I guess I did it wrong, and it did not take!
:((
According to the news here, there have been several DUI arrests and 15 deaths related to the rally. I just found out through facebook that one was a friend of a friend of mine.
On a happier note, we sat outside and watched the cloud formations this evening..... remember, these were all within about an hours time!
The wind came up, with a small twister to the left of the picture
Then odd looking cloud formations
Then lightening behind the clouds causing some great lighting effects!!
Between 10 PM and 4 AM there is to be a meteor shower. But with the cloud cover we have, it will not be visible... but we are satisfied, as we already saw the majesty of HIS creation earlier!!

There is nothing like the clear sky in South Dakota. Although I have thought about Sturgis during bike week, your description of the number of bikes and the deaths have removed all desire. Twenty days and the wedding, and then you will be headed home. Sounds good to me.
