Custer SD Day #1

We arrived in Custer on Sunday July 19th around 4:00pm. We had a wonderful dinner of bacon wrapped buffalo burgers.

Our first full day today, Monday July 20th, we had lunch at the Alpine Inn http://www.alpineinnhillcity.com/in Hill City, SD for a girl's birthday lunch. Dorothy Redford(Birthday girl, Claire May, Zorra Mae Oaks, Sandy, and Adele.

Adele then wanted to take pictures with the buffalo around town. This is the 5th year for the Custer Stampede in which artists are commissioned to paint life size buffalo as well as table tops and other free form art. The buffalo are displayed around Custer SD and then auctioned off in Sept. http://www.custerstampede.com/

Here are pics of her with the 6 lifesize Buffalo this year up for auction:

Here is Adele with a favorite from a prior year:
