The Caravan...We are finally here in South Dakota. After what seemed like a never ending drive through Wyoming (I told Kevin that we should have flown).
Kevin and I left yesterday evening (Tuesday) and met up with rest of the Pickett’s in Casper WY. I am not going to say much about Casper except for the fact that our hotel was NASTY! I was going to take some pictures but Lynnette said “some thing’s are better, not remembered”. She is a wise woman…

Today we went to Belle Fourche which is the “geo center” of the U.S. This is essentially calculated by taking the furthest points of Hawaii and Maine as well as Florida and Alaska (as well as others…). Where all these lines cross happens to be in this small town in South Dakota. Being the "geo center" is this towns claim to fame and they've built a large granite monument. The "true geo center" is actually about 12 miles outside of downtown and is marked by a U.S geological marker.
All the Kiddies
We also drove through Sturgis, the famous motorcycle town. I imagine that during the bike rally that it is much more exciting because it truly was a "drive through."
