Home again home again.... or 2nd home

Well it's been a long time since Wenatchee WA!!!  Went thru Idaho, saw the infamous town of Wallace and the bordello museum cool little town.  From Butte went zip lining in Gallatin MT one word AWESOME.  Stayed in Bozeman that night and on to Yellowstone the next day.  Got to the park about 15 minutes before Old Faithful did it's thing.... PERFECT timing.  Guess stopping at the earlier geysers helped, didn't have such a long wait.  Drove into Cody WY had a great ride on an un marked newly tar and graveled road in RAIN..... 25 MPH for 8 miles which seemed like 80 all down hill..... From Cody WY it was off to Mt Rushmore outside of Rapid City SD..... very strange experience there, huge group of 'Pathfinders' according to one of the decked out ladies it is a co-ed group like girl/boy scouts.  Seemed kind of cultish and when looked it up on internet seems like it is associated with the Adventists ..... not far off.  So after a long and winding trip up the mountain we had decided to be a jump ahead of the rally and go to Sturgis for the night.  Lots of bikers, even thought the really doesn't start till next weekend sometime.  Got a later start than wanted to but arrive in Flom 8:45 pm.  LOTS of driving today..... but corn is ready and Lovise wants to be a corn queen before going to stevne in Fargo on Tuesday

We made it to the 1st platform, in Gallatin

Nomar liked the salad but both Telma og Lovise had liver and onions YUM

A little after dinner treat, this had melted and been 'reconstituted' in some ice still taste GOOD
