I love the mountains, I love the rolling hills


The Black Hills of South Dakota (my 26th state) were amazing. This is the view from our driveway. The long drive through Wyoming was worth it. We stopped at Devil's Tower:
We spent more time right outside the monument at the prairie dog town:

We went boating - something we don't ever do at home. I wonder why not?
We panned for gold:

And we went to Mt. Rushmore.
We even petted kangaroos and alligators!
All in all, a very fun if not too restful trip. My favorite part? Being able to see the stars again. No light pollution to ruin our view of the Milky Way.
