Today's "Top of the Blog" Comment

We left Rocky Mountain National Park for home today shortly before Noon after getting a phone call that Ellen Foyle passed away this (Saturday) morning.
We were just ready to start a 5 day camping stay inside the park but in no way could we enjoy that special event knowing we would not be there for Ellen and her family.
Within 90 minutes of getting the phone call we were on the road heading home.
We drove 400 of the 1200 miles to get home today and will be home on Monday.
This is probably the end of the blog.

From within we can only say that Ellen Foyle holds a very special place in our hearts and she will be deeply missed.
Love, Ellen & Jim

Tuesday - Palisades State Park to The Badlands

We took our time leaving Palisades Tuesday (yesterday) and left around Noon.  We just were tired after two days of rushing around trying to drive 300-400 miles at a time.

But we managed to drive 300 miles again to arrive in the Badlands by 5:00 pm.  Interstate 75mph the whole way so we did well.  We had to drive through the Badlands National Park to get to Interior, SD so this will be our "base" to explore the National Park.  Saw a little of the park on the way in and it looks beautiful.  Heading out soon to take it all in as soon as we figure out what to do with the dogs.

Pictures later.
