Leaving Hart Ranch

Today we left Hart Ranch - heading to Georgia.  We have the new little pop-up camper towed behind the fifth wheel - luckily we have a camera so that we can keep an eye on it.  If it fell off, we'd never know it!!

It's too long for most states, and illegal in other states. (Mike will have to unload the bike and pull it in those states).

We can't wait to start camping in it!!!

We can't believe that summer went so fast.   We're looking forward to our fall/winter and squeezing all the grand kids.

More later.

Angie and Scott in the Black Hills

We just had a great week with Angie and Scott.  They flew in to Rapid last Wednesday, and just left yesterday.  Luckily we had some nice weather at the start of the week and got all of the outdoor stuff done first.

We had a blast, and did some of the same things with Angie and Scott that we had done with Nate back in 2008.

Angie got to ride Iron Mountain Road and Needles Highway with Mike on the Goldwing.   Scott and I followed in the truck.  The weather was perfect.

On Friday, we went to the Buffalo roundup at Custer State Park.  We stayed into the afternoon to watch the sorting, vaccinating and branding.

We went to Devil's Tower, too.

We also got to go to the Wild Horse Sanctuary

We went and had lunch at the Loud American in Sturgis (one of our favorite places), we went to Lead and Deadwood (Angie got pictures of the gate at the Sanford Lab - where they're trying to find Neutrinos).   We also went and walked around downtown Rapid City - which has a very charming down town.  

It was a great week - we had so much fun.   We head out on Sunday - and will be heading to Georgia.

More later!
