23.07.02 Just Another Day

By Scott Shephard

You have to get up pretty early in western South Dakota at this time of year to catch a sunrise over the Black Hills. Yogi might say that it “gets early early” here.* Quite honestly I wasn’t sure what I would see given that our cabin sits down amongst tall pines and it’s not really easy to see the whole sky.

Regardless of what I would see, it was a beautiful morning to fly high above the trees. Here my drone is 400’ above me and when I was asked by Deb upon my return what I had seen, I said that I had seen “wonderful things.”**

*The famous Yankee catcher Yogi Berra famously said about left field at Yankee stadium that “it gets late early out there.”

**The archaeologist Howard Carter famously said when asked what he saw when he had his first look into the tomb of King Tut, “I see wonderful things.”
