More from Custer SP...

We had terrific neighbors who were next to us at both Badlands and Custer; George and Mary from Wisconsin had two Schnauzers Dux and Mitzi with whom Rexie enjoyed a very comfortable friendship (he really misses Maggie and the rest of the pack at Mom and Dad's); I enjoyed conversations with George who gave us good tips on the area.

Recently, Sylvan Lake and Mt Rushmore were shown in the movie "National Treasure" (part 2) which we have not seen yet; we are looking forward to recognizing the locations during the movie. Gary also discovered that everywhere he fished in Custer SP was amazing - a fish on the line with nearly every cast. He caught a good one on Sylvan Lake, and also a couple really big rainbows in the Grace Coolidge walk-in fish area.

We had resident buffalo (usually two - but once there were 10) walking through or napping in our campground. At one point, I had walked around to get a picture of the buffalo with our trailer in the background, then realized Rexie had opened the screen door and was out on the deck, looking directly at me and the buffalo. Fortunately, he's a bit slow these days - plus I think he might believe the buffalo are big horses - he doesn't seem too interested in them.
