Today was another travel day, so nothing really special. We left the KOA in Hardin, MT and headed toward Rapid City, SD. On the way, we did stop at the Little Bighorn Battlefield. (The Battle of Little Bighorn was the battle between Native Americans of the Sioux Nation and the 7th Cavalry of the American Army. You may know it better as Custer’s Last Stand.) They have a museum dedicated to the battle and you can take tours of the battlefield. We just visited the museum for a little while, but it was actually pretty neat. They had a lot of Native American and American military relics. The museum really focused on the conflict between the American government and Native Americans of the Old West. If you’re a history buff, you would like it a lot.
We made it to Rapid City, SD around 4:00pm and got settled in with Kate’s great uncle, John. He took us out to eat at Red Lobster, mmmmmmm cheddar biscuits, then we came back and took showers and slept in a real bed for the first time in about 3 weeks. We also got to watch cable TV which was a treat. That’s about it. Tomorrow: Mt. Rushmore
