We talk a lot about how winter in South Dakota can be a rough few months. The cold and snow, and more cold, can really take its toll on a person.

But it's not all bad. There are a couple of good things about winter in South Dakota.

First, no bugs! The below-zero temps may seem like a burden, but they really are good for keeping the pests away. Ain't no mosquitoes out and about in the freezing air.
