Cool MC! I have been meaning to do a shoot of these state parks.
I need to set aside some time to do what you did here.
I hope you have more to post.

Thanks!!
For some reason the quanset photo looks like a face. Looks like a character from Thomas the Train or something.
I hope you have more to post.
I assume you mean at later date. The rest of the photos of the state parks are on the link to pbase!!

Nice!
On the subject of state parks... a cool one which I don't think most people know about... Fort Atkinson State Historical Park and the re-enactment events they host there. They've got one coming up August 5/6th. Check it out... pretty neat stuff.

That was tribal land.
Here are a couple photos from the same vantage point from Bob (Swift) and I's Nebraska Roadtrip Spectacular back in 2003.

These pics are great. I love Ponca State Park. I camped there 2 years ago and it was a great spot to watch the sun come up over Iowa farmland.

I'm still just as confused as I was on that day. Only now I don't have blonde hair.

Sounds like some sort of geometric rap.....or would that be algebraic? It's been way too long.
