The last 2 days have flown by…that’s because they were our days off. We seem to stay on the road the whole time running everywhere but not getting much done.
We will be closing our campground on Sept. 13 but Bob and I are going to stay in the area for another week to 10 days so we have been checking out all of the campgrounds in the area. I told Bob we had to have internet even if we can’t get one where our AT&T cell phones work.
The weather is starting to turn cooler…we are turning our small heaters on each morning when we get up and today it was jeans and sweatshirts…yippee…my kind of weather. They tell me they have had snow as early as the middle of September up here.
We spent some time some time in Custer State Park yesterday. We ran into some burros, mules, donkeys…we are not sure which. They had no problem going right up to the cars. Unfortunately some people were feeding them…right in front of the signs that said not to feed the animals…go figure.
This little guy was all legs and he was kicking up a storm.
We saw a few prairie dogs but were once again disappointed in the number of animals we saw throughout the park.
Today we took Buddy and Cissy to the beauty shop in Custer where they had a spa day. We then met Dave and Betty in Keystone to ride the tram up the side of the hill. We had tried to do this once before but it was raining buckets by the time we got there and they were closed. Today they were closed again…the sign said they would be open for Labor Day. It’s just not meant to be. So, we had lunch at the local DQ and got to have a nice visit.
Right across the street from the DQ we saw this sign about the Alfred Hitchcock movie.
Another view of part of Keystone.
This evening we met Larry and Rosalie, friends that we had worked with at Adventureland in 2005, at the Alpine Inn in Hill City for dinner. Also joining us were Rod and Marsha Schultz. Rod and Marsha are one of the couples that run the campground office at the Tiffin service center in Red Bay, AL. Rod and Marsha invited Joe and Jan Dabney of Houston, TX to join us. They have an Allegro Bus made by Tiffin. A pleasure to meet such nice people and find out they know other Tiffin owners that we too know. Small world. The food was great as was the company. Unfortunately I didn’t not have my camera on the right setting. 
It’s back to work tomorrow…getting ready for the Labor Day weekend crowd we are expecting.
Moving on.
