South Dakota Web Roundup

Sep 14, 2012

 

Between the cooler, darker evenings, talk of fall foliage and homecoming parades, I've been dreaming of harvest seasons past and really feeling my rural roots. Maybe you are too. 

Meade County Harvest Fest is in Sturgis on Saturday, with a farmers market, ag displays, train and hay rides and a street dance. Pierre & Fort Pierre's annual celebration of western and cowboy culture, the Dakota Western Heritage Festival, is also this weekend.

We spotted this timelapse video of a giant silage pile near Veblen thanks to @sdcorn on Twitter. 

At Wild Idea Buffalo's blog, Dan reflects on the unpredictability of rural life and our dependence on the weather.

The annual Custer State Park Buffalo Roundup is coming up Sept. 24. South Dakota photographer Chad Coppess is ready for the thundering herd. Custer, SD's Facebook page linked to a page featuring footage from the 1934 buffalo roundup.
