We did again!!
Every summer we drive to Idaho and back, but this year we enjoyed a few sites along the way.
Our first stop for lunch was this little place called Blue Earth, Minnesota. We were quite surprised to see the Green Giant as we pulled off the highway to eat.
Edwin practiced his photography skills.
We also stopped in Mitchell, Nebraska for a little bit to see the corn palace. The mosaics in the background are all done with corn cobs. There were several mosaics throughout the palace and along the walk. It was a great little place to visit for a bit before journeying on.
Day 2 of our road trip brought us to the Petrified Rock Gardens in South Dakota. We really enjoyed playing here and seeing all the fancy rocks and goodies they had on display.
I love this photo!
Later that same day we stopped at Mt. Rushmore. The girls wanted to pat the presidents' heads in this photo, but they were a little too tall!
Day three we drove over the Bighorn mountains in Wyoming and then through to Yellowstone.
This witch's cauldron was quite smelly...but it is Yellowstone after all.
The Dragon's Cave was our favorite stop at the park. The babbling, gurgling, and steam made a few of us wonder if the dragon was sleeping or getting ready to eat!
Three days to drive....the fun is just beginning.
