This morning we went down and had breakfast cooked by John and Marci. John has worked for the KOA for 24 years. The campground is full during Sturgis and he cooks pancakes for all of the bikers. Next we left for Mt. Rushmore. Pretty Amazing.
Then we went to Custer State Park by way of the Needles Highway. It has a lot of rock tunnels which are one way and lots of switchback turns but was pretty amazing.
Custer State Park was gorgeous. Saw antelope, deer, and buffalo.
Next was the Wind Cave National Park. Bob's Dad worked here in the mid 30's as a member of the CCC (Civilian Convervation Corp).
Then we drove towards the town of Custer. 7 miles south of Custer was the Mayo CCC camp where Bob's Dad was housed. There is a street name Mayo at that location.
5 miles south of Custer was the location of the TB hospital that Bob's Grandmother was admitted to in the 1930's. It is now a home for troubled boys.
Up the highway a little further we had a sandwich and then went to Hill City which had a CCC museum. We took turns with the dog and each spent about a 1/2 hour inside.
Got home in time to fix dinner. Then went over to watch Bob's cousin. He performs 2 times a week at the KOA. Did a great job!
