Would Don Quixote fight these Towering Giants?
"The hardware man [back in Hague] didn't know any short route across the Missouri either. John and I study the map. I had hoped we might find an unofficial ferryboat crossing or footbridge or something in the ninety-mile stretch, but evidently there isn’t any because there’s not much to get to on the other side. It’s all Indian reservation. We decide to head south to Mobridge and cross there.
Mobridge & Missouri River, SD. are 15Mi Ahead On Rt12 going West. These High Voltage Power Line Towers, like Don Quixote’s Giants, have shoulders, arms, and legs! The electrical power industry is one of the metaphorical Giants of out time! Who in our own time is prepared to fight them? This photo is for USCA English Professor Donald Blount, who claims Cervantes's book Don Quixote is, with with the works of Shakespeare, vastly superior to ZMM. (Note: Back at Hague, ND, most sloughs and small lakes were full of dead trees. This was from an apparent & recent severe drought. Trees out here can’t even survive in well-watered places!)
