whole block. |

| Among the trinket shops, there was a
chapel. |

| T-Rex looks at you when you walk in the
Backyard area. Every twelve minutes lightning flashes
and he opens his mouth and ROARS. |

| I remember seeing pictures of us kids
doing just this. Of course I don't remember it, just the
pictures. So I figured I should have a picture much
older and fatter. |

| The dirt road tour sure did ugly up the

back! |

| A great supper at Red Lobster. And the

| Today's
Notes: We expected it would be cooler by going the northern
routes. Yeah right. It was 100 here today! Although the humidity
was only 20%, it was still HOT.
I e-mailed the Governor of Minnesota to give him my opinion of
the rest area closings. Apparently tourism is not welcome in MN.
About 8 pm we realized there is a race track in downtown Rapid
City. And I think it's right next to us! They finally stopped
about 1 AM this morning. When I raced, the tracks were out in
the boonies. Not RIGHT DOWN TOWN! |
| Tomorrow's Plans: Our plans are to go to
Deadwood to do the cowboy thing. Then Sunday we'll leave for
Montana. |
