Vanagon Diaries: Custer State Park, SD

In March, Chris and I drove the Van to the Black Hills and Custer State Park in South Dakota.  We spent Spring break  camping and hanging out with buffalo.   

Since it was the off season, we were two of the only people in the entire state park.  

Custer State Park Camp Ground

We had some visitors at the camp site.

It took a while, but they finally got Bella's attention.

So many Bison  

They made driving a little difficult...

This one licked the van.

Mount Rushmore 

Mount Rushmore is pretty awesome in the off season.  We were literally the only people there!

Drinking Wine On A Train

 "Wine on a Train"

Ahem ahem...

Headin' to Christmas with the family,

Subaru'd make it if we're lucky,

Bought some tickets, depots yucky,

Got my bags and coat and mittens, no clue what to expect, 

The kids behind are pretty noisy,

The track is smooth but it's still squeaky,

More pile in at every station,

Think I may start an Amtrak petition,

It's hot in here, they're a sleepy crowd,

But our car squeaks, and I can't tune it out, 

I need some zzz's, these new folks are a pain,

And now you know why, I'm drinking wine on a train. 

(Cut me some slack, it's 3:00am.)
