Killdeer (that is, I didn't stop to take too many photos); hence, here
is a photo of a glorious part of my bicycle tour experience: the
campground shower.
The wind blew every direction today, sometimes with me and sometimes
against me. The strongest winds, though, always come off those heavy-
loaded trucks related in some way to this latest incarnation of the
Western Dakota oil boom. Tonight after dinner I talked to some
hardworking drillers, electricians, truckers, you name it, who are
getting in as many long shifts as they can while the gettin's good.
They say there's more oil here in the Dakotas than anywhere else in
the US (including what's untapped in Alaska), but you just never know
how long these busy times will last.
