Nothing witty day.


Left the land of corn and coal behind, but not before hitting the world famous Car Henge.  As the name implies kinda like Stone Henge but with cars.  After Car Henge we made our way into South Dakota to visit the Black Hills, home of many wonders natural and otherwise, and billboards.  Our first real stop in the Black Hills was Wind Cave National Park.  We also managed to find a brew pub in Custer, within walking distance from our motel for a few days while we explore.

day miles 203, trip miles 5,554, odometer 38,379

Car Henge.  Yes it's a bunch of cars stuck in the ground.

That may be Dan's old truck up there!  (not really, wrong year, but close)

Spawning Salmon and T-Wrecks in the background.  All made from car parts, for example the dino had is 2 oil pans and his ribs are leaves from leaf springs.

Covered wagon.
Historical entrance to Wind Cave, not used bacause it is too small (about 14" across) and they dynamited a new one a short distance away a long long time ago.

Box Work in Wind cave, called that because in many places looks like old post office boxes (no doors)
More box work.
Brew pub in Custer SD.  Had a great food and 3 beers of their own that were all very good.
