Some time ago I posted to get advice of things to see along a planed vacation route. I thought I would post how that 13 day vacation went. Dad and I headed west through Minnesota on 90. Since my brother is taking him to see South Dakota the end of the month, our first stop was Custer battlefield. The tour through the historical battlefield may have been a little skewered as the guide was Crow indian. Then we visited Bannack, Nevada City ( where we saw the only known 2 story outhouse) and drove through Virginia City. From there we went south east into Yellowstone from the west gate. We camped just outside Yellowstone's east gate. We spent 2 1/2 days exploring the park. We spent 1 night in Cody Wy and enjoyed a night at the Rodeo. We viewed the Big Boy Locomotive in Chyenne. Spent a few hours at the millitary vehicle museum at Lexington Nb. Took a whole day at the pioneer museun at Minden Nb. Spent the morning at the Stratigic air command in Ashland Nb. And one final stop at Farmall land in Avoka Ia before returning home.
Thanks to all who gave advice, weather we were able to take it or not. It made the trip a lot more interesting and I now have many ideas of things to see in future trips west.
