Leaving South Dakota

 Well we are finally leaving South Dakota and heading North! To Alaska! With a short stop planned in Wyoming, for good measure. 2,036 miles on the vehicle. $366.00 American dollars in fuel. Not able to upload any pics, but trust me, South Dakota and it's critters are lovely. Old Hatchet Finger's finger has healed enough for him to play the ukelele again. Today we are enjoying our 21st anniversary of wedded bliss, which we celebrated in style Sunday night with Buffalo Stew at the Blue Bell Lodge. Much later we survived another dangerous thunderstorm. I believe the worst one yet. Tom's South Dakota travel tip: Don't split wood with a hatchet while you are holding the wood. Leslie's South Dakota travel tip: Don't put shampoo in a laptop case with your laptop in it.
