Day 4: Billings, Montana

Today was very eventful.  I hardly know where to start, but I guess I'll start at the beginning.  

We got on the road early since we knew that today we would be driving 750 miles from Sioux Falls, SD to Billings, MT via Rapid City, SD--the town closest to Mt. Rushmore.  Gabi was ready to get on the road so she could get some shut-eye.  She is really a great traveler as she sleeps or sticks her head on the console between us to get hugs and kisses.

The terrain didn't change much all the way through South Dakota.  It was small, rolling hills the whole way...

We finally got to Rapid City, South Dakota--the start of the Black Hills and the Badlands.  The terrain finally changed into larger rolling hills surrounded by mountains.  We got to Mt. Rushmore around noon and I was really excited to see it in person.
