South Dakota!

We left Minnesota this morning, drying off our gear as best we could. We headed west again! These structures were at all the SD rest areas we stopped at.
After what felt like several hours, we landed in Mitchell SD at the one, the glorious, the worlds ONLY Corn Palace!
Cornelius wasn't there but we had fun without him.
We then drive for what felt like another full day, and arrived in Rapid City, SD. 
We set up camp, went food shopping and had a yummy dinner. Then, swimming!

Today we trekked out of Monument Valley and headed east. We visited 4 Corners, a place Sarah has wanted to go for 30 years.   Next, we went to Cortez CO, where we set up camp for the night. We had a yummy lunch at The Farm Bistro and swam for about 2 hours. We ran into someone who was "with" us at Monument Valley and they told us to see Mesa Verde because its so close and really pretty. It did not disappoint.

What a day! We've been having a,blast touring and...swimming. Today we woke up early and drove to Mt Rushmore. The kids were amazed. They loved it. We saw plaques for all the states and territories. Found NY! After Mt Rushmore, we HAD to visit Crazy Horse. I swear, the kids didnt think it was real! When we pulled up they shouted that theyve heard of it on NatGeo. They were very excited. It looked different than when Stefanie and I went 11 years ago. Of course, no trip is complete without a visit,to the air and space museum. And naturally, we ended the day with 6 hours of swimming. 😳
