10-Day Vacation to South Dakota

Clarinda, IA 71º overcast.  Light rain during the day.


We left Clarinda, with our travel trailer, about noon Sunday, May 17 for South Dakota.  Our main purpose was to see the progress on the carving at Crazy Horse Monument.  Click Here for website Though we spent only one day at the monument (drove by it several other days) it is interesting that they are building the INDIAN UNIVERSITY OF NORTH AMERICA® on site and currently have students in a 2-year program and are working to build a 4-year University.


 Stopped first in Whiting, IA and parked our trailer in back yard of Leonard & Noni Lund.  They invited fellow RVers Steve and Ann DeBoom from just north of Sioux City to join us for supper and some Pegs & Jokers afterwards.
















Next morning we headed north, in very strong winds - blowing hard on us and our travel trailer - and had lunch with Donna and Maynard Weiting.  With her were her daughter Darcy and granddaughter









Well, I started this 3 or 4 days ago and left and never got back to it.  Will post and try to fill in later.
