The first day we drove to Missoula, MT. The greatest thing about the whole drive was when we stopped at the first rest stop in Montana. I'm not sure why but at this rest stop everyone has there own bathroom...YES!! Your own private bathroom. What Montana genius thought of this...I would love to shake his hand!! Here Addy and I are bringing in everything from the van into our first Hotel. We tried to bring in only the things we needed when we were only spending one night at a certain place but it seemed like we were always running back to the van for something we forgot. Not a perfect system but it worked.
The next day we drove through Montana, Wyoming, & into South Dakota to Deadwod. We had two days in Deadwood which was awesome because we had a time to walk around, do a bus tour, and a little gambling...In fact we almost won $230,0000.00 NO JOKE!!! It's a long story and makes Kristi just SICK every time she thinks about it.
Here is Wild Bills grave site. Kristi and I took the big Deadwood tour. It takes you around town then up to the cemetery where Wild Bill & Calamity Jane are buried. If anyone goes I would highly recommend it.
WAIT A MINUTE....I THOUGHT HE WAS DEAD...NOW HE'S ON A HORSE!!! Here is Wild Bill riding his horse through town. Every night they do this reenactment of Wild Bills assassination. It was alright. I actually had more fun just walking around town and on the tour.
OK....HE IS DEAD!! Here's Kristi and I in front of the sign that shows were Wild Bill was shot. I guess the real Saloon Number 10 burnt down years ago but they do have a marker where it was. 
Tomorrow we head off to Rapid City to see Mt. Rushmore then onto Huron, South Dakota to see the Struder family. Stay Tuned!!
