Happy Birthday Justin! Blurb, Blurb, Blurb

Today we explored scenic Custer State Park, mostly via driving. The wildlife trail was pretty much a bust since we were out mid-day, but we did make some burro friends. Then it was a short winding road to Mt. Rushmore. We hit up Sylvan Lake and did a short hike around it. It was off to Crazy Horse Memorial which was cooler than we thought it would be - because of the story behind it's creation/continuation. Lastly, we celebrated Justin's bday at a local Custer restaurant (al fresco dining of course). 

Friendly but always hungry burro. This is Ted.

A new edition to the monument?

Typical local T-shirt shop selections. Love him or hate him, some are hilarious!
