If you like to gamble and are over 21, Deadwood is probably a great place to visit. The museum was pretty cool, though. Rachel wasn't thrilled by either.
As for Rushmore, I suggest visiting before you go to Crazy Horse. They're about 1/2 hour apart, which seems close on the mountainous roads here. Both charge an entrance fee (Rushmore was $10 per car, Crazy Horse was $10 per person) and your Annual Park Pass isn't good at Rushmore.

I've had pretty much no cell phone signal since we left I-94 in North Dakota on Wednesday morning. Who knew even Deadwood would be a dead zone? Hence the slow on Twitter updates. I did get a few minutes of coverage at Mount Rushmore today, where I took the time to call Mom (wouldn't you? she worries).
The stats
- Miles driven: 3000 since June 19. That's an average of 230 miles per day.
- Plates spotted: We've logged 43 states so far. Alaska is now on the "seen it" list.
- Car candy: Twizzlers Pull-N-Peel
- Nights logged without a pillow: 8
- Number of times Rachel has kvetched (complained): too many times to count
Morning! Stay safe, girls!! Hail and storms? Not good. How far are you from Elle's? Have a good day.
