We took a family vacation to the Black Hills of South Dakota... Clark Griswald style. We road tripped it about 10 hours and stayed several days in a cabin and took in the sites. We had such a great time as a little family.
 |
| Mount Rushmore |
 |
| Sylvan lake- so beautiful |
 |
| Big Horn sheep |
 |
| Wolves- right next to the car- kinda scary |
 |
| That is a bear asleep in the tree |
 |
| Mountain Lions- also asleep in the tree |
 |
| Claire bear lookin at the baby bears |
We next traveled to Custer State park and saw... more animals- a little bit more wild though than Bear County...
 |
| Buffalo- we bought Claire a stuffed one and its her favorite! |
 |
| Really friendly donkeys. They use to be pack animals to take travelers around the park but were set free a number of years ago- now they just are a wild pack that try to eat food out of your car |
 |
| Needles Highway- crazy cool rock tunnels |
 |
| We also visited the Badlands. Really beautiful. It reminded me of the Grand Canyon |
 |
| Mountain Goats- Big momma and her babies |
 |
| We visited the Crazy Horse Memorial- still in progress |
 |
| We rode the 1880 train- it took us through the mountains. It was relaxing and fun |
 |
| Wall Drug- apparently its a big deal. It was advertised for about 300 miles |
