What was supposed to be a like an 8 hour drive to the Black Hills, turned into a 13 hour drive around a mountain due to a road close. Needless to say, the kids needed out.
Rapid City: Storybook Island, it is....
First day with the new legs,
Old Lumpy Luck took a great fall...
Witnessed Axel's first steps right here and now in Yogi's pic-i-nic basket. He walked from one end to another without assistance. Good Boo-Boo. Three weeks before his 1st birthday. Hasn't done it since...
I am going to huff and I am going to puff...
I like my head in the hole, too...
Peek-a-Boo
I love you...
We miss Brad...
...a lot...
...a lot, a lot...
I've got to see the Wizard...
I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore...
...oil can...
We must be over the rainbow...
Cinderella, dressed in yella, went upstairs to kiss her fella.
By mistake she kissed a snake, How many doctors did it take?
1...2...3...4. ...
The Cat in the Hat knows a lot about that...
Goes far, flies near, to the stars away from here...
It's so hot.
But, it's never too early to put in a good word with the big guy...
Mike thinks so, too.
Butterbean...
Have you hugged a farmer today?
A park full of giant fiberglass things = full time family fun day!
Our ode to Miss Maizie Moe...
Your good friend Mike is a T-Rex...
...and so is your favorite brother...
ROAR!
Lucky needs your help, Maizie!
The Muffler Man, big and strong will save us...
There's gold in them there hills!
Panning for gold with Johnny One Feather...
He was grew up on lake Mille Lacs, but later bought a gold mine in the Black Hills were he lives...
He has had many bit parts and/or a horse riding stunt doubled in many many western movies... He turned down the Deadwood series.
Johnny One Feather was a Green Beret in the US Army.
Killed a Vietcong with a hypodermic needle right between the eyes.
He also has a rattlesnake hat and the biggest piece of gold he has ever found was worth $700.
Axel thinks all rocks are precious...
Mike was all into the Deadwood series and all the swearing they did...
He wanted to play a few hands of blackjack, but the tables didn't open til later...
So, he took a few pulls and won a few bucks...
There were cowboys in the streets...
Lucky took an oath and became a junior deputy...
There was a card game. Someone cheated...
You know what happens to cheaters?
They die.
Isn't that right, Wild Bill?
Right.
That's Deadwood.
If you look hard enough, eventually...
...all roads will lead you back to him...
...and he will be there waiting for you in Sturgis with a cold one...
...and when you have to go to the bathroom,
don't forget to wipe your ass...
