Sdaupanner Loc: South Dakota /New England
 
I have traveled the USA top to bottom and east to west as an over the road Truck Driver for the past 35 years and I am now left to take up my hobbies. Even thou I have several Million miles under me I really never carried a camera I was to busy watching out for four wheelers but I think that I have some. I am also a Gold prospector in some of my free time a hobby that I have had for about 33 0r 34 years. I also live in the Black Hills of South Dakota and have several thousand pictures of abandoned or ghosted towns and these were old gold mining towns for the most part. My wife and I live in one of the old ghost towns in the Hills and it had at one time a pop of about 1500 people and today there are about 12 of us that are year round residents. So I will look through my shots and see if several of them of these towns, and of course Mt Rushmore would be of interest to the members.
