Sept 19-20 Spearfsh SD and to Buffalo WY

We had overnghted at  Chris' campground (excellent place) and because of rain waited until late AM to head down Spearfish  Canyon along Spearfish Creek  to view black hills scenery featuring waterfalls and limestone palisades.

Had late lunch in Spearfish.  Numeros old boom town had oprahouses, bit this one still has performances.  Most recently Phantom of the Opera

Later, we had engine light came on and loss of power at highway speed as we approached Buffalo, so we ovenghted there at an excellent KOA two nights (19 &20) and arranged a tow to the Sprinter dealer in Billings MT.  Tow arrives 8 AM

So unable to stop at Custer except Beth saw this in restroom stop off I-90


After the tow truck deposited us in Billings, we went for groceries and saw this kite meet.  Some of the kites wee well over ten feet.  Some are hand -painted art.


Beth talked to one of the participants, who invited us to his kite store in Livingston, MT
