One of my favorite places to go to is the Black Hills. And when I was in college I started going to the Black Hills. And things have changed over the years. And definitely I would say changed for the worse. Because coming from Chicago everything is really fast paced. And then going out to the Black Hills you can slow the clock down a little bit. But you would be heading west and you would hit a certain point. Probably Sioux Falls maybe. Maybe Mitchell. And then you wouldn't hit another McDonald's like forever. And I don't think when I first started going to the Black Hills I don't even think they had a McDonald's in Rapid City. Now with COVID everyone and their brother has these ATVs and side by sides. And I started this trend. I used to go out there and I would bring a trailer full of toys. I would bring my TW200, my Enduro. I would bring a side by side or an ATV, a couple Harleys. But I was one of the first to drive around and I would go on and get a plate for my ATV or side by side. And I would drive around on the roads trying to get to the trails. And there were some really cool trails. But a friend of mine lived on a rock road and 22 miles out on a rock road. And he was a desolate until COVID hit and everyone started buying outdoor equipment and invading the territory. But the Black Hills, I just love them. And I could, we would go, we would spend like 10, 12 days for July 4th and then go back and spend another 20 something days during a motorcycle rally there. So that's definitely one of my favorite places to go. But I'm looking forward to, I want to really go on like a Northern Lights tour.
