What a day! This was probably the busiest day planned for the whole trip, and we just got settled back in the hotel room at the end of it. I am way too tired to post much here other than a summary of our activities. Hopefully, tomorrow night I will have time to bring you all up to date on what we did and saw today.
We started early from Mitchell, SD (on the road around 7 AM CDT) and finished the day in Deadwood arriving at 6 PM MDT. In between we crossed the Missouri River, saw the landscape change from plains to mountains, drove through the Bad Lands, stopped in Wall, SD, visited the Mt. Rushmore and Crazy Horse memorials, had dinner in the Deadwood Social Club restaurant and handed over about $45 to the Four Aces Casino at the Hampton Inn. We drove over 500 miles, stopped innumerable times and enjoyed the whole thing immensely. I took nearly 100 photos, Mary took about 40, and Sheila shot lots of videos and took many pictures, also.
I have a lot of pictures to sort through and the difficult job of selecting some to post on Picassa. All that and details of today's travels will have to wait until tomorrow. Don't let me forget to tell you about the wild burros and prairie dogs. Tomorrow promises to be a less jam packed day so there should be time to fill in the details.
