Day 9, Saturday, September 15, 2007
. . . Today was a long day of driving. We left Grey Cliff, Wyoming and drove to Custer, South Dakota. Once again, hundreds of miles of open range gently rolling hills nearly uninhabited except for a a settlement here and there -- a couple of small cities -- Sheridan, Cody Wyoming Weather once again was absolutely warm -- 75 degrees and sunny. Skies clear and bright. God was so good to give us the idea to travel in September because all the families with children are finished with traveling because of school and the weather is still good. I wondered if the Sunflower was the state flower of Wyoming because they decorated the roadside all along the way.
. . . I cannot remember exactly where were but Ben saw a dead deer along the roadside and so we stopped, walked back about 1/4 mile to where it was. Ben very much wanted the antler (2 points) so he cut it o with a saw he brought along. I was afraid to ask him what he planned to do with it and he didn't tell me so it's okay with me that I don't know.
. . . Other than that it's been a pretty quiet day. We are settled in here in Custer -- 9 miles from Mount Rushmore which we plan to visit tomorrow. So long till then. . .
