Back from vacation...

Hi again, We have been back from vacation for a week and a half now, so yes I am a little slow at updating you. First of all, our trip should have been longer, or maybe it was just that we didn't take the time to camp out and I really feel like camping. But there is still time for camping.
Our trip from Michigan to home was fun. We got to visit three of the Laura Ingall's Wilder historical sites, first her birthplace in Pepin, WI, then Walnut Grove, MN, and then the last homestead in DeSmet, SD. It was really interesting, and I got souveniers and a couple of books so I could learn more of the history. We drove through the Badlands and Mt Rushmore in South Dakota, that was really neat. Then through Wyoming again so we decided to drive through Yellowstone. That was really nice, but too quick, so we will be planning another trip there sometime and spend a whole day. We saw bison and elk but no bear or moose, so we have to go back. And we didn't take the route that has Old Faithful, so of course we have to go back to see that. It was all pretty awesome though. Going through Montana we went to a ghost town, that was really interesting. And of course we saw a lot of places that we should have camped at.
Now that we are home it will be busy, busy, working on getting the yard in shape (now that we are home to water it) and I will be busy with wedding stuff.
Talk to you soon.
