October 29, 2014---Rapid City, South Dakota


We left Loveland at 6:10 this morning.  Our goal was to get to Rapid City, South Dakota, to renew Super Driver’s license.  It turned out to be harder than was necessary.

First, Bill took his passport in with him.  That was what we needed last time.  Not today.  He needed two pieces of “proof” of his address.  OK, that was doable.  But he also needed proof we were staying overnight in South Dakota.  

So we went back into town to get a room.  With that taken care of, we went back to the DMV.  Wouldn’t you know it...the correct information wasn’t on the hotel registration.  At least, it wasn’t wasn’t what the DMV wanted.

Ugh!  Tomorrow, we will try again...on our way out of town.  What a day! 

This sculpture, in front of a bead store, shows the Hunkayapi Ceremony where a young person is given a Lakota name.

Travel totals...We traveled 393 miles today, including several trips back and forth to DMV.  On the way to SD, we found one geocache.  We saw lots of antelope and some geese going south.  We crossed two state lines.  The Honda has such a wimpy horn it wasn’t the same.  I think I failed my “yahooing” also.  We miss the motorhome!!!!!
