It was a 13 hour day!

Started our day at Ft. Hays with an all you can eat Cowboy Breakfast. 

After breakfast, our chariot awaited us. 

It was off to Mount Rushmore. No matter how many pictures you have seen, it does not compare to being there. 

Back in the bus. We drove the Iron Mountain Rd. It had hair pin turns and tunnels that framed Mount Rushmore when you looked through them. We were also on the lookout for wild life. 


Next stop, Custer State Park. It's the location of Calvin Coolidge's summer White House. It has now been turned into a lodge. We had lunch in the lodge. Kurt had the buffalo stew. 

It is also the location of Sylvan Lake. 

We had to wait to leave the lodge due to the number of buffalo crossing the road. It was awesome to see. 

Continued our trip on Needles Highway. More wild life. 




We traveled through a very tight tunnel. 

Needles Highway lead us to the Crazy Horse Monument. 

Last Stop of our tour was a Cowboy dinner and show. 

WE ARE TIRED! WHAT A DAY!!!!
