Devils Tower

Well we got up early and made a day of it.  Of to Wyoming to see Devils Tower

I can't capture the vastness of the area

Jim gets credit for spotting this monument and then for us getting great pictures

Hill City and Thunderhead Falls

Some bad looking dudes and dudettes need help

We met up with Rick and Tonya in Hill City, SD

This waterfall is underground and is a roaring one. It was in an old gold mine

Crazy Horse and Mount Rushmore and the Peter Norbeck Drive

Crazy Horse,  not much different than 6 years ago

If youlookclosely you can see the monument through the tunnel....Trust me!

Whole afternoon of roads like this

Sherry and I at the end of our walk

Jewell Cave and the Needles highway

Today we did a tour of Jewell Cave. Never had been there, a different cave, not very pretty. The we went for a drive on the Needles Highway.  Along the way we say a Mountain goat and baby and got lots of pictures

Custer State Park.

 This park is my favorite.  Lots of wildlife, beautiful scenery and drives that are very scenic.

How we look going down road

Ogallala, NE

This was supposed to be a one night stay.  But the guys discovered that there was a boot hill cemetery.  So Sherry and I got laundry done, dinner and then the three of them went off to Wal mart and cemetery

then another of these midwest thunderstorms, up to 70mph winds, rain and possible hail.
Closed in slides in case of wind and are in for the night
