Day 15 - Buffalo, Wyoming




















Today we visited the South Dakota Visitor Center where we bought cds to listen to in the car that told the history of the state. We also visited another rest area that had information on the Lewis & Clark expedition and was near the Missouri River Reservoir (near one of Lewis & Clark`s camping spots). One interesting tidbit: At this point in Lewis & Clark`s journey, they had been gone for 4 months and had put their tents up over 100 times. We also visited the Chapel in the Woods in Rapid City, South Dakota. The church is beautiful and built exactly like the famous Borgund Stavkirk of Laerdal, Norway. Behind the church is the bell built in a small tower and the prayer path. Nana was able to walk the whole way...Yea!! We also visited their gift shop where Nana tried on a Viking hat. After visiting the church, we made our way to Wyoming. We stopped at their visitor center and took a few pictures. Do you think we went river rafting? Ha Ha tricked you!! We spend the night in Buffalo, Wyoming.
