Saying goodbye to the Mt. Rushmore area was surprisingly difficult -- we all very much enjoyed our time in the South Dakota hills and could see a return trip (at least if it wasn't so darn difficult to get to). Syd and Mark began the day again with a pancake breakfast while Stacey and Sasha enjoyed a long walk. Syd then rode a recumbent bike for the first time with her new friend Olivia. Heading out through Hill City, we stopped at the Ben West art gallery where we learned: a new piece of art will soon hang in our home, and Mark looks great in a frock.
The rest of the day was spent cruising down I90 in South Dakota where we went from Mountain to Central time, passed the home of Laura Ingalls Wilder, dined (?) at an all you can eat pizza buffet (the best place we could find in Mitchell), before finally making camp in Sioux Falls.
Tomorrow we're heading to Wisconsin.
You all look great and it is terrific seeing you and speaking with you. Sydney, you look and sound like you are having a terrific time and don't let those bugs bug you!. We love you, Mimi and Daddy Frank
