We were blessed to have friends fly out from Sacramento for a quick visit. Janis and her two sisters, Jane and Jean, flew in on Thursday for a whirlwind tour of Custer and the surrounding area. We picked the ladies up on Thursday and they flew back to Sacramento early Saturday afternoon. We had a lot to show them and boy, did we ever.
We stopped at Bear Country USA, Sylvan Lake, Eye of the Needle, drove Iron Mountain Road and Custer Wildlife Loop (saw no herds of Bison! Unimaginable.), Mount Rushmore, and Crazy Horse. Not to mention stopping at the Alpine Inn for bacon-wrapped filet mignon, the Purple Pie Place for pie and other local eating establishments.
What a great time we had visiting and showing them the beauty of the Black Hills. The only negative was that Jane came down with a stomach issue on Friday and felt really poor the entire day. What a trooper she was! She came especially to see Mount Rushmore and saw it she did. Here is a picture of the Jean, Jane, and Janis.
