Boucher’s squadron.  Somehow, the flight paths of the B-24s and B-26s must have crisscrossed.  For the whole story with all images, see 22nd BG Red Raiders 77 Years Ago | a 7 Image Story.

Solitude @ Wind Cave | Pronghorn

Solitude @ Wind Cave | Pronghorn

Solitude @ Wind Cave | Pronghorn  Pronghorn are an original Native American animal with no close relatives. Although often called an antelope, they are not antelope.  They belong to a family of their own; one of a kind.  Pronghorn are symbolic of the grasslands and The Great American Prairie .  They are renowned for being North America’s fastest land animal; running at speeds over 50 mph.  Actually, pronghorn is also the second fastest land animal in the world after the cheetah.  Although the cheetah is a bit faster, pronghorn can run at high speeds much longer than the cheetah.  For the whole story with all images, see Solitude @ Wind Cave | a 7 Image Story.

Solitude @ Wind Cave | Lonely Road

Solitude @ Wind Cave | Lonely Road

Solitude @ Wind Cave | Lonely Road   A couple of gravel roads traverse the more remote areas of Wind Cave.  Traveling slowly along the road, it’s quiet.  Roll the window down; it’s still quiet.  Notice the sound of gravel beneath the tires; no other sounds; just gravel.  Stop the car; turn the engine off; silence!  Look up and down the road; no one’s coming.  For the whole story with all images, see Solitude @ Wind Cave | a 7 Image Story.
