Think even I have had the Sam’s Town Buffet!! Especially, the desert section…
Guess I mean dessert…desert I do not like…
I’m all caught up here & loving it. You spoiled us with all the amazing details the first few days, you will have to fill in the rest upon your return. It’s a very compelling (& often amusing) read! I want to hear about Rushmore in particular one day. Enjoy Dad’s 80th & we’ll await your updates!! Be safe
I will eventually get it all filled in… working the Mount Rushmore piece now…
Just so you guys know, Sam’s Town has 24 hr bowling.
I wish I had known that… might have been an alternative entertainment choice…
