So – this morning we left Montana, and I know why they call it “Big Sky” . The picture really doesn’t do justice to the feeling: OH and Rick forgot to get a receipt this morning when we stopped for gas in Lewistown. So while he’s at the red light I ran, in only my socks, across 4 lanes to grab it out of the machine before the light turned. It was a small town, and surprisingly enough my socks WEREN’T dirty when I got back to the truck. 
We entered Wyoming, and it was pretty much the same stuff, but the weather changed:
Not so bad of a trip today – but there was some rain, some BLOODY bugs on our windshield, and some red clay hills in Wyoming.
Funny Gas Store name. Okay funny to me:

We stopped @ the Black Hills Veteran Memorial. It was sad, and moving, and I wish I could explain all I felt:
Our check engine light came on today 
And then went off again Yeah!
We got to see Mount Rushmore today. Barely. We got up there, I got loads of great photos, and then as we drive away the fog dropped over their faces, like it was bedtime. It was incredible, but I had already put away the camera, so no shots of that.
Heading in:
Here’s the kiddos:
US:
There are 100 pictures from today – but some of them are DEF worth looking at (sorry I couldn’t post them all).
Last one:
We let the dogs out outside the park, and they got into some herbicide that they just sprayed, and ended up with blue paws. Therefore a trip to PetCo was mandatory, and a bath in the hotel was completed. I think I ended up clearner than they are
Tomorrow – we are heading straight across SD, and then due south….unsure where we will stop for the night, but I’m sure you will hear from me! Nite-Nite!
We saw one of those Kum-n-Go gas stations too and I thought it was hilarious. LOL
