We arrived at our campsite at Red Lodge KOA late in the evening. We decided to take some scenic routes on our way to see Mount Rushmore which were worth the added time to our travels that day. We got to drive through stone tunnels carved out from the mountains and see herds of bison, wild burros and mules, and white tail deer on the Needles Highway and the wild life loop in Custer State Park. We hope the pictures and video come out!
Mount Rushmore was as it is depicted on all the tourist brochures. We didn't spend that much time there. Monty took a few camera shots and I some short video and we were on our way.
The drive across part of Montana was long, but the wide open fields with not much on them but cows and deer was very isolated. The temperatures in Red Lodge took a dive last night and we have changed from wearing shorts to our long pants and sweatshirts. We hope that the wind dies down by the afternoon. We will use the next two days to relax, get laundry done, charge up the batteries and enjoy the free WiFi! I am acquiring a new respect for these simple KOA camping facilities that have all the basic needs covered. We will try to get more pictures up!
