Custer SD Day #2


Adele and Grandma had a fabulous day together. Paul and I went into town for lunch and picked up a wine candleabra at a store called Walk in the Woods. It is cool. It fits into the top of a wine bottle and you can put votives or tea lights on it.

Adele and Grandma started out with a rock/gem hunt. She found a very nice large white Quartz that we will take home with us. Adele is on the hunt for Rose Quartz and Mica and White Quartz. She watched Treasure Hunter on the travel channel with Paul and ever since then she has wanted to find these stones indigenous to the region here in Custer.
After that they went to the Spirit Horse Escape. http://www.spirithorseescape.com/

Adele fed lots of animals: goats, llamas, burros, horses, and pot bellied pigs. She rode a pony named Polly.

Adele and Grandma explored a mine to eat a picnic lunch that they packed. Peanut Butter for Adele and leftover Reuben sandwich from yesterday for Grandma.

They then went to Old West Town. They spent around 3 hours there in all different rooms like the jailhouse, kitchen, schoolhouse, laundry, etc.
We didn't see them until 6:00 pm.
