The day featured a good drive through the Badlands, and getting to Mt Rushmore just as the mist was starting to come in. After Mt. Rushmore we took a very windy (as in many curves) road on down to Custer, where we stopped for 8oz. buffalo burgers. As we drove on there were 2 wild turkey sightings with a total of 6 turkeys, and 5 deer sightings with a total of about 16 deer. Also saw one prairie dog up on his haunches.

Here in Edgemont the cold water runs hot - which is interesting. Staying at the Rainbow Motel - the old fashioned one story style where you drive right in front of your own entrance. Tomorrow we head for the Grand Tetons. Ruth and Dad

Your blog has been very fun to read. Niel and I check it every day. Sounds like the trip is going well. I always enjoy seeing the Corn Palace in Mitchell-one of those quirky but kind of neat places. Wasn't Edgemont where Ann was originally going to do her internship? I am looking forward to hearing about the Tetons.
