51 Days

We depart in the amount of days it says in the title(duh) so it is probably about time we scheduled somewhere for us to lay our heads in the West.

Before we get to where we are staying, we need to share a minor detail with you. The week of our trip happens to fall on the same week as a really big biker festival in a city called Sturgis. Some of you may have heard of this legendary place from Meghan's mom: ) What does this mean for our trip? It means we'll be seeing a lot of leather and tattoos and beards. We should probably make a BINGO game but call it BIKER instead. Some of the squares could be Harley Tattoo, overweight rider, leather chaps, handlebar mustache, bandanna, cut off shirt...well, you get the picture.

With Sturgis happening(and KISS playing the night we want to stay near Mt. Rushmore), all hotels are booked/really, really expensive. Will you sleep in your car then, Beck and Meg? We might, but only if our cabins are not conducive to our high maintenance personalities. Ha.

We'll be staying here on Tuesday, August 5 in a cabin with a double bed and bunk beds.(Becky called top bunk...Meghan than called double bed...) Why did we book this specific campground you ask? It has a FREE shuttle to the nightly RODEO. The $2 all you can eat pancake breakfast and free wifi are enticing as well.

That's all for now. Look for more updates closer to and after our departure date(August 3).
