June 25th - Went on the Chuck Wagon Dinner ride the other night. It was OK, it would have been more fun if the wagon had been pulled by horses instead of a truck!!! The scenery was great, as usual, and on the way home it took us about ½ hour to go about 2 miles as there was a very large herd of buffalo on the road. They kept going from one side of the road to the other and they had their babies with them. I didn’t take many pictures as I had so many from the last time, but this herd must have been about three times the size of the other. What a sight, the little ones had a hard time keeping up with their mothers as the herd was not grazing, but moving rather fast. Guess they were in a hurry to get to their sleeping area!!!
Last night we went to a play at the Black Hills Playhouse. It was The Sugar Bean Sisters and stared Marcia Williams from the Newhart Show. It was a little slow moving but was fun.
We went for a nice hike yesterday and it was so awesome. The woods were so quiet, we even got close to a deer before she ran. We had planned on taking anther one but Doug had had enough. Will try and do another trail today. I didn’t even fall!!!!
We go for a ride almost every night and I am still trying to see an elk with no luck yet!!! We feed and talk with the burrows almost nightly and have now seen several of their babies!!! The weather could not be nicer. Yesterday it was in the upper 70’s and last night it went to about 60!!
Doug starts his new job this weekend, and I think he will be really happy with it - I sure hope so!!! There is still a lot of touring to do, but things are getting rather busy around here. Going to try and take an old train ride today or tomorrow. I need to do all these things so I can tell people when they are making reservations. I get a lot of questions about what there is to do here.
The campgrounds have been full for the last four or five days. I had one woman say to me “How could that possibly be, you have so many campsites, you must have something open!!” This is a very popular park.
Edie and family arrived home safely and they had a wonderful trip. I did not realize how anxious I was to have them home!!!
