Sout Dakota

So 2 weekends ago, Andy and I went to South Dakota for 4 days. We went to the Robertson family farm near Winner, South Dakota for opening weekend of pheasant season. I decided that Pheasant hunting is probably the only thing to do in the town of Winner, SD. This town is in the middle of nowhere, about 2.5 hrs from Sioux Falls. It is so small, it doesn't even have a Wal-Mart remotely close. Even with not a lot of nightlife, we still found plenty to do, including hitting up the Pheasant Bar 1 night!! It was a pretty interesting trip for me, someone who has never been pheasant hunting. It is a very orchestrated event with very specific tasks for each person during the hunt. I just enjoyed being outdoors in the gorgeous weather. 2 of the days it was perfect weather, sunny and in the 60s. I day it got up to 80, which is just too hot when you are walking through fields all day long!! My favorite part of the trip was seeing how happy and relaxed Andy was. Its been a pretty stressful year for the both of us being in the construction industry during the largest economic downturn since the great depressions, so it was nice just relaxing and not thinking about work at all!! We had a great time catching up with friends and family and of course, shooting some phez. I even shot my first (and only) phez on the trip!!
