Beside the Lake in South Dakota

After many years making the trip from North Dakota to Arizona we have found a system for travel. Two lakes are involved. On the way to Arizona we stay at Cochiti Lake, and on the way back we stay at Angostura State park by the lake.  So this morning we awaken to an excellent view from high above the lake with the sun streaming in the windows. Mrs. Kadizzle is stirring the eggs and soon we will be off through Rapid City and across the prairie.  From the incredible crowds of Denver and Phoenix we will go back to the deserted streets of Hazen.  To see a traffic light when you live in Hazen you have to drive 75 miles.

One nice thing about visiting parks in the off season is you have the whole place to yourself.  The wildlife wanders by and the birds visit.  Welcome back the cold.  Frost on the window every morning, and a jacket.
