The great thing about this time of year;  is that we are gifted with the company of long-time friends who come back home for the holidays. This year was no exception. I have been graced with a flurry great company. Yesterday was no exception. I spent the day with an excellent group of individuals as we meandered through the Southern edge of Sheep Mountain Table in the Badlands. It was definitely cold, but we were well equipped with the gear to keep us warm. It was a full day, made fuller with great folks, good conversation and excellent scenery.
