Little Bighorn and Fetterman etc

#1 Post by Spock » Thu May 17, 2018 8:15 pm

My kids scare me sometimes.

The Spocklette is going to a bio/chem engineering camp at South Dakota School of Mines in mid July. Drop off is Sunday afternoon.

I have been figuring out how to do some "Sioux" sites for pictures on this trip. Plans are for Whitestone Hill/ Little Bighorn/ Fetterman Massacre/ Wagon Box Fight

1) The Spocklette made it clear that she wants to visit these sights. She is stoked to visit Little Bighorn again.

2) The boys want to go as well.

Plan is to leave Friday-stop at Whitestone Hill on the way. Stay overnight near Little Bighorn. Do that and Fetterman etc on Saturday.

Stay in Buffalo, Wyo. Mrs. S and I were there in 1995 and we really liked the town.

Sometime in June, we plan to go to Fort Snelling for Minnesota Sioux background. I haven't been since second grade.

If y'all have not been to Devi's Tower, figure out how to do that (about 3 hours) on the way to Little Bighorn.

We loved Little Bighorn. Only got to visit about 2 hours as we had an ice cream meet-up in Billings with T-girl we had to make. We will get back one day. We could have spent 4-5 hours there. It is very awe inspiring.
