Molly Goes West

So for work this week we traveled to two ranches in North Dakota and South Dakota. The drive out was pretty long- Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota- the first leg of the drive. 

On our way back we took a different route and went into Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois and Indiana. Five new states for me! Super excited. The trip was awesome!












The beautiful Badlands!

Chilling by the breeding box


We were lucky enough to visit SD during Sturgis Bike Week ;)






Gorgeous




Baby Jack was cute as a button. He was a little shy all morning, but finally warmed up right before we left. 




Driving the rancher's truck (I was parked when I took this)


When in SD, one must pick a bouquet from the pasture.


Bear Butte


Oh hey, America!

The tunnel we had to travel into on Iron Mountain Road!


The buffalo. I was about 50 yards from these guys, not really thinking of the danger that they could at anytime start charging at me! …Yolo?



Gotta take a selfie ;)
