Westward Vacation - Day 3

This morning my parents and I packed up all of our stuff and left Rapid City, but not before we had breakfast at Tally's Silver Spoon, my new favorite restaurant. I couldn't decide between the French Toast and the Eggs Benedict so they let me have half of both! The French Toast was pretty good but the Eggs Benedict... It was the most amazing thing I have ever eaten in my entire life. It was perfect in every way. The hollandaise sauce was perfect. The bacon was great. The egg was done exactly how I like them to be. Even the English muffin was toasted to perfection. It was amazing. I don't know if I will ever be able to eat Eggs Benedict ever again, except at Tally's Silver Spoon.

Moving on: My family and i went to see Devil's Tower, which is this giant piece of rock that is jutting out of the land (if you have ever seen Close Encounters of the Third Kind, you will know what I'm talking about). It's super weird looking. It was also really hot and sunny.

We also saw a lot of prairie dogs which are officially my favorite animal. Of course, even with all the signs posted EVERYWHERE saying "DON'T FEED THE PRAIRIE DOGS!", what did people do? That's right, they fed the prairie dogs chocolate Teddy Grams. Even though this is probably super bad for the dogs, it was nice because they came up closer so i was able to get much better pictures than I normally would have.

We also crossed a very impressive set of mountains. We got up to an elevation of 9,430 feet, which was beautiful. There were a few towns where the elevation was actually higher that the population number.

I know this is random, but I saw a llama. Yeah, a llama. Just hanging out in a field. A llama.

In Lovell, Wyoming we went to a convenience store that had mac and cheese on once side of the isle and bullets on the other which I found hilarious.

Also, there was a place called "Pub, Liquor and Taxidermy". Yes, very odd things to put together...

On my hunt for license plates I have 8 more states to go: Alabama, Kentucky, New Hampshire, Vermont, Hawaii, Maine, Rhode Island and Delaware Wish me lick finding them tomorrow at Yellowstone!!!
