Default Greetings from the Black Hills of S.D.

Hello Everyone,

I have been wanting a Camaro for about forty years. I finally got one last week. I am not mechanically inclined so I got a new one instead of looking for an old classic. I bought a 2012 2LT convertible with the RS package.

I am heading into my mid-50's and I managed one last use of the mid-life crisis line with my wife, probably for the last time. I don't think I'll get away with that one again.

We have a little snow on the ground right now in western South Dakota so the car will probably spend most of the next few weeks in the garage. I am really looking forward to driving it around the Black Hills when summer comes.

Does anyone on this forum attend the Sturgis Camaro Rally in June?

Welcome, Stars. Enjoy the cruise, both of you.
You may have snow on the ground, but it's cold, and yes, I know it's winter.

I get out to SD about three times a year. I shoot Praire Dogs east of Pierre, been to sturges in the fall, but to much going on at that time of the year. Any good shooting your way, always looking of some place new. I live on the west short of Lake Michigan. For me its 735 miles just to get to Pierre so I only make a few trips during the summer.

I am a transplant from points east in South Dakota. I sometimes hear about some prairie dog shooting, but I am not a shooter myself and I don't know enough ranchers to know specifics. I assume that you would have to have other reasons to continue farther west.

Welcome to CF, Seeing Stars. I never had to use the mid-life crisis line, because my wife knows that I never grew up!
Besides, if I kick off tomorrow, that would mean my mid-life was in my later 20's. "Mid-Life" is an irrelevant term, unless you plan on living to 110?
