I've been waiting the entire trip to use this title (my favorite Beatles song) and here we are in South Dakota near the Badlands. We drove all day from Wyoming and passed lots of wildlife and beautiful scenery. Saw an owl on a phone pole and two wild turkeys. Mostly we saw pronghorn antelope everywhere as well as the everpresent cattle. Our driver last night told me that they expect 90-95% of cows to deliver a calf each year in order to make money. No wonder there are so many cute little calves everywhere.
We did cross the Continental Divide (again) at 9600' and still see snow on the mountain tops. Now we are in Hot Springs, SD and moving to Custer State Park tomorrow. They are having fireworks on the 3rd at Mt. Rushmore and lots of bison and other animals for us to see here.
