July 25- Roo Ranch, Devils Tower and the long journey home.

We started the day by heading towards Sturgis, which for those of you that don't know is the home of the famous Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and happens to be August 4-10. And even though it was about two weeks away we saw our far share of motorcycles on the road. At Stugis we took a side road to Roo Ranch. Supposely -- "The Roo Ranch is an exciting and fun filled place to come and see kangaroos, wallabies, wallaroos and other interesting animals that are rare to North America." To say the least it was kinda a let down and a rip off. But the kids did get to pet a Kangaroo.

We then headed to Devils Tower, it is a National Monument in Wyoming and on the license plate. It seemed like a great big rock shooting out of the ground but as we got closer the texture of the column is very cool, it is also a holy place by the Indians in the region. There were several prayer bundles ties to the trees. It was a pretty cool to experiance.

We left Devils Towers at about 4:30 and had about a six hour drive home- and the scenery is very boring, and most of the towns where pretty small. The most that we spent on a gallon of gas was $4.15. We had a really good time and are so glad that we got to see our Aunts, uncles, cousins and Grandma and Grandpa! Thanks Everyone!
