RE: Country-City Brain Drain - Freewrite Day 605 - Prompt: Moving to the City
I grew up in rural Black Hawk, South Dakota just North of Rapid City and South of Sturgis. We were close to Wyoming,Montana and Nebraska.
Sturgis!!! Are you a Harley fan, or have you seen enough of those to last you a lifetime (as our offspring said once when we got held up in the traffic to the annual Sturgis celebration on our way to the Black Hills)? How fun to find a fellow 'rural origins' Steemian. :)
When a townjumps in size from 6,900 to 495,000 in a few days it is not looked upon as a happy occasion by the locals.
I did buy a leather jacket there one time during the rally when I was a youngster. The motorcycles were fun to look at but I never got the "Harley bug".
