... in Wall,SD. Very corny but great goofy photos ops. Mia and Caroline take note....
South Dakota has stone tepee structures at most of their rest stops. Thought you might like to see a picture of one. Next stop was the Black Hills Mountain in South Dakota. There we viewed Mount Rushmore. Leaving Rushmore we winded our way ...

... We had a picnic by moonlight and barely got the tent pitched before the sun set. Any Scout would’ve been impressed with my special tent-pitching powers….We even inflated the toddler aerobeds. We witnessed an entourage of "shiners" driving though the big field on the inner Park road loop with big spotlights shining looking for little eyes, I’m sure. We just read a couple ...

Today I rode from Bozeman Montana to Gillette Wyoming stopping off at the site of the Battle Of Little Big Horn.

The day started off as normal with me trying to out run the storm system that hit me yesterday. The site for the battle is just off the highway so very easy to get to. There is the original cemetery of the fallen soldiers and memorial stone. Now in addition there is also a 'new' memorial to the indians who fell in the battle (from both ...

Starting back.......Traveled thru the Bighorns on our way to Gillette. They were incredible. Had to stop for a herd of cattle that cowboys were rounding up and driving them on horseback to the transport trucks. Just had to stop and wait patiently. They still have to ride and find the cattle the on horseback.......the same way they did it 100 years ago.

... Hills of South Dakota, to visit my Grandpa and the ranch. I had been trying, with no luck, to get a hold of him and Ilona for a few days to let them know I was coming. So I wasn't surprised that no one was around the house when I pulled up. So I took a walk around the house and then down to the Henderson and the Lower 40, just to have a look around and take in the special Black Hills air. When my Grandpa finally drove up I waved like crazy, only to have ...

We stayed over at Gillete Wy. and started our day westward. I could see the mountains in the distant, about fifty miles or so. But nothing could prepare me for the site when we topped a hill about 10 miles out. I now know what our forefathers thought when they first seen these mountains. I probably said the same thing. [ oh my God there's no way I will make it through that] We do have some nice pics of this and ...
