Summer Vacation 2010: Day 3

It was a good night as it stayed warm enough that we did not have to run the heater in the camper. Jared's Aunt Judy and Uncle Gary picked Jared up to golf at a course called Red Rock, which was challenging to say the least. Jared won’t disclose his score, but it must not have been good as he lost at least a dozen balls. Jared said, " When this guy hits into knee high grass in rattle snake country, that ball is considered gone."

Stacey and the girls headed over to Old McDonald’s farm which is located right next to the campground. Stacey quickly realized it was not an ideal place to go considering Emma is not horribly fond of animals. She was not impressed with the turkeys and various animals running around. After the farm, the girls got to go swimming back at the campground. Once Jared returned from golfing, we loaded up two tired girls and headed for Custer State Park for Needle’s Highway and the wildlife loop. Emma was asleep before we were even out of the campground and Lauren joined her moments later. We had a nice peaceful drive through the park with two and sometimes three sleeping girls. The girls woke up towards the end and were able to see a few of the buffalo, antelope, and donkeys along the way.


Lauren took this picture of the goats.

Lauren briefly tried to pet the goats, but didn't want to try feeding them.

Emma enjoyed the somewhat secure area of the playground where
not too many animals ventured.

Both girls had been in the train, but at the last minute, Emma decided she didn't want to go.
