Custer, Here We Come!

Welcome to South Dakota!

When we crossed the state line, he said, "Turn around, make a U-turn, I need a picture!" So, in the midst of all that traffic, I found a crossing and turned. He opened the doors and ran toward the sign. In the meantime, our USA map blew out the door and crossed over to Iowa into a huge field of weeds over the side of a hill. I was satisfied to let it fly away, but not him - no way!! He yelled, "Chase it . . ." Well, let's just say, I have the map, but I was ready to kill him as I removed chiggers and bugs from my pants for the next 100 miles.

After the chase . . .

So far, I've driven 22.5 hours - WV, OH, KY, IN, ILL, IA, SD

We visited the famous, Wall Drug Store in SD.

This is a South Dakota sunset.

We arrived in Custer around 10:30 pm. We hadn't eaten a meal, so we searched for a local eatery and found Cattleman's Restaurant. I was exhausted and starved . . . you guys know me, I have to eat or else!! I had Buffalo chili - it was spicy and oh, so, tasty! I highly recommend this place - a very western atmosphere and delicious food.

We are getting ready to head to Crazy Horse and Mt. Rushmore this morning, then I have another 10 hour drive to Salt Lake City, Utah.
