It was a semi cool morning on November 17, 2012 in Kadoka South Dakota. It was the second day of the hunt; we’re scheduled to leave .With breakfast in hand, a honey bun and chocolate milk, we left the gas station. We hopped on the interstate, to go to the other side of the county to walk the first area of the day. We hadn’t seen a deer yet and we were ready to hunt.

In the article “How do you learn to walk? Thousands of steps and dozens of falls per day”, experimental research was done to find an answer to how infants learn to walk. Previous research was conducted on this topic, but it did not show anything about how much or how far infants walk, how often they fall, what makes them continue walking after falling, and how these abilities change with development.

A bunch of old men obsessing over cars that they have bought and built, that is the typical idea of what car culture is comprised of. But what most people don’t consider, is how many women are involved in the culture, not including the women that show up to car shows with their boyfriends or husbands. Because this fact is overlooked, all women are discredited on their knowledge and general interest in cars. Being the “unknowledgeable” car person that I am, I take pride in my hobby. I have always…
