Road Trip!

The last two and a half weeks I spent on a road trip vacation with my family (that's why this blog has been neglected). I will share a picture journey of our trip.

Trailing our camper, we headed first for Mount Rushmore, going as far northern Iowa the first day.

The first night we camped by a pretty lake in Lewis and Clark State Park, Northern Iowa. We awoke early, picked up camp and continued on to the Black Hills, South Dakota.

We saw a lot of this on the way!

Beautiful night sky in the Black Hills.

Mount Rushmore! 

We went to Mount Rushmore in the morning, then in the evening they had a special program, so we went back that same night. And I think we were all glad we did! The program was great, but at the end they had all of the service men and women go to the stage so we could all honor them, and there were four WWII veterans. That was pretty neat in its self, but comes to find out, one one the veterans is from Dayton, Ohio and not only that, he has bought berries from us at the farmer's market we go too!


From the Black Hills we hit the road for Yellowstone!

Of course everyone that visits Yellowstone has to stop and see Old Faithful. 

We had the special opportunity to see Giantess erupting, which only erupts 2-6 times a year! Giantess is twice the size of Old Faithful.

Since this post is getting long, I will do a part 2 and share some more of the pictures from the amazing places we got to visit.

Most of the pictures were taken by my awesome photographer sister Hannah. Check out her blog HannahRose Photography .

Cheers!
