Where the Buffalo Roam

Our second camping trip in South Dakota was in Custer State Park this August. Pictures do not do it justice...the Black Hills are really beautiful! We went camping with two other couples and their kids and had a great time visiting, building fires, scouting for deer, driving the Wildlife Loop, making S'mores, cooking out, and having some "adult drinks". :) Such a relaxing trip. Custer State Park is about an hour from Rapid City. The buffalo literally roam free around Custer State Park, so it was not unusual to find one outside your cabin door or several blocking the roads. They have an Annual Buffalo Roundup each September. We didn't make it this year, but hope to next year.

Campground kiss! Sweet sissies!

Rowan learned to ride a bike during our camping trip. Won't get on one now...go figure!

I ran into this guy outside the campground restroom. He's much bigger than he looks!


Yummy s'mores!!
