Growing up, I didn't travel outside of Minnesota and Wisconsin. I did "Study Abroad" in Iowa and crossed to Illinois while visiting Dubuque, and did a side-trip to Thunder Bay, Canada while on a ski trip with Ruth and some of her friends. That is, until the RV road trip to Yellowstone through South Dakota, Wyoming, and touched just a bit of Montana. So, that's what the family road trip was this year. On the way out to Rapid City we encountered Rushmore Shadows - $39.95 for two nights in a "cabin" (single-wide 1/2 length). Bear in mind that when we were first married, Ruth and I did time-share presentations for sport. 90 minutes was actually two hours, which threw a kink in our schedule, but that's part of the game. Their offer is a great deal for someone; just not us. Highlights: Lead, SD (with impromptu tourguide Sky) Devil's Tower Wind Cave Hot Springs and Evans Plunge Badlands Minuteman missile tour (at Ellsworth AFB) and museum
