When I first started this site, I started it with the intentions of showing my love for South Dakota. I had the intentions of pointing out it’s amazing people. I wanted people to see some of the incredible businesses and places in South Dakota. I wanted the world to see, what I see. That South…
As a kid, I always loved hunting and fishing. And most of my friends loved hunting as well. So growing up in Scotland, South Dakota, this naturally was one of my favorite places to go. And it had incredible fishing. It would take minutes to catch as many crappie and bluegill as you could muster….
Rewind the clock back a decade or so, and seeing big acts come to South Dakota was pretty rare. And when they did come, it was usually for large events only. Such as “The Sturgis Bike Rally”. As a kid my first concert was at the Sioux Falls Arena. So even though the Sioux Falls…
