Climbing Spirit Mound....
There is a great big hill not far from our house called Spirit Mound. The other day we finally decided it was time to climb it and see what it was like to stand in the same spot that Lewis and Clark stood 204 years ago.
That's Brendan standing up there at the top. Justin and Brendan both went the long way and still managed to beat us. The girls are giving it their all....
It was quite windy up there. Poor Katie was blown around a bit. We looked around and tried to imagine what it would have been like to see a herd of wild buffalo off in the distance. We did see some horses to give us a little perspective. We all were glad that we went while it was still nice outside. Two days later we had our first snow. It was only a light dusting, nothing at all like the dumping that Rapid City and the Black Hills received. Winter is fast approaching....

You've gotten to see a lot of neat things over the past year or so! Glad you're doing well back in SD. :)
