      I just saw that not to long ago. I just recently saw a small motor home get stuck. I have no clue how they get those buses through there. It was a great experience. Thank you for joining us. Stan and Rhonda

    Hi. Great video. Brought back lots of great memories for me. I've been to lots of great outdoor places through the Northwest Part of the country, but have always returned to Custer State Park. I am 76 and no longer able to travel to the park and I miss so, so much. I loved this video. For those of you folks who like to fish, Sylvan Lake has a lot of trout. I've had many dinners supplied by this lake.

    We loved our day at Custer. The needles highway was so much fun, and Becky’s car fit through the tunnel nicely. The lake was so crowded we couldn’t even find a parking space. That gives us a reason to go back next year, and Becky has promised me a new Jeep for graduation. That should be a lot of fun next year. Great adventure guys. Butch and Becky 😀😀

      Hello Janice, thank you for joining us! This has been one of our favorite states to visit. There was so much to do! We also want to return. Our biggest reason was to visit Mount Rushmore only to give way to so much more. The history in the area is incredible. We saw more wild life than we expected. All these small towns were another big surprise. Thank you for your comment we truly appreciated it. Stan and Rhonda❤️

    Nice that you got a chance to take the kayak out, and what a pretty lake that was! Sometimes that happens to us where we seemingly take as much time to inflate/deflate our kayak(s) than we actually spend on the water with them. When we went camping last week though, we inflated our kayaks the first day and used them about 4 separate times while we were there.

    Rhonda you’ve got your paddles upside down. There’s usually a name on the that should face you and it right side up. You should be scooping the water. It’s definitely easier to paddle a non blow up kayak. We’re sure enjoying watching the two of you! Loving your adventures hopefully we’ll start ours next year.

I think everyone needs to put it on their bucket list. We did look a little at the prices of homes. We just about fell out of our truck.

We got their when they started to open the town up for the summer. Hills City is a wonderful little town to. It has the old 1880 train that runs through the Black Hills. It was not open when we were there. So much to see and do. Blessings to you both, we will see you next week. Stan and Rhonda❤️

Your videos are amazing! Can we humbly give you some advice? Your videography is amazing along with your narration. We have found in our videos that if we speak into the camera and look straight into the lens, it appears our followers enjoy our videos much more. It took us awhile for us to figure this out in our humble beginnings. We are a small channel but we are seeing some exciting growth. We can only wish we had the beautiful videography you do. We hope to see you down the road also! Blessings to you and safe travels, Stan and Rhonda
