Of course beauty is in the eye of the beholder...as a female, I am left neutral at the photo of the lady you posted.

Seriously though I remember really enjoying our time in South Dakota...I always think of "North by Northwest" when I remember Mt. Rushmore. Too bad we couldn't get over to Wyoming..may we'll head west next time.

"In a news release titled 'Bypass South Dakota!', the Women’s Medical Fund urged supporters to steer clear of South Dakota...SNIP...But we can do without Mount Rushmore, the Black Hills, the Badlands and the Corn Palace,' Anne Gaylor, director of the Fund, wrote."

Anne Gaylor and Annie Laurie Gaylor (Mother & Daughter fascists) founded the "Freedom FROM Religion Foundation," just so you all know who is REALLY behind this (useless, IMHO) boycott.

re: from abortion-rights supporters who say they will not vacation in South Dakota.))

LOL--Brangelina, we're not going to the Black Hills this summer! We'll have to go, instead, to the South of France!

I thought Gaylor was head of the Freedom From Religion Association. I guess she is branching out.

It is an excellent idea for those who favor killing pre-born children to not vacation in South Dakota. The pro-choice crowd tends to be quite unsavory in behavior and appearance. The P. C. {pro-choice} people would blend in much better amongst their peers in San Francisco, Ithaca, and West Hollywood.

SoDak has a tourism industry? What, North Dakotans and Canucks looking for a warm weather getaway?

Guess this means you're unaware of the Mount Rushmore National Memorial, Black Hills National Forest (perhaps "Sturgis" rings a bell), and Badlands National Park. Each is a worthy vacation destination in itself, and they're all located in western South Dakota.

Yes, South Dakota has quite a tourism industry.

Why would an anti-american leftist want to go there anyway?

I've seen so many rocks and trees in my life, grew up in a town named for rocks, seen rocks and trees and fields foreign and domestic, no way I'd go to SoDak for anything other than the Frozen Four, which doesn't look to be heading to Vermillion any time soon, considering they have neither a rink nor a team of their own.

The NAACP boycott of South Carolina has been great the last five years. Hope SD's boycott goes just as well. :-)

"Rocks and trees," eh?

Mm-kay. Your loss.

Whatever. ;O)

Western South Dakota is wonderful! If you go to the area, famous for Mt. Rushmore and the Black Hills, do not miss Custer State Park. The best, bar none, wildlife park in the USA. The park practices wildlife/herd management on its buffalo herd, and it is large, healthy, with no brucelosis. Wild turkey abound, plus pronghorn sheep, sable antelope, deer, elk, and moose. Best wildlife photography area in the US

Plus they allow hunting, too.

Time to plan a trip to South Dakota!

I think I'll take the family down there and start filling out job applications...

Well, you should write to the PTB in SD and let them know!
