Today we decided to go to Montana and tour Little Big Horn Battle Field where Lt. Col. George A. Custer made his last stand. It took us a little over an hour to get there and Bob drove. Some of the scenery was really beautiful.
With our America the beautiful pass the admission was FREE.
This area memorializes the U.S. Army's 7th Cavalry and the Sioux and Cheyenne in one of the Indians last armed efforts to preserve their way of life back in 1876. The Battle of the Little Bighorn is one of the most famous battles in American history.
An Indian Memorial was dedicated June 25th, 2003. It was placed in memory of all the tribes defending their way of life at the Battle.

While touring the area my thoughts keep going to Ed, he is really a history buff.
These are some stones to show where the dead were found.
We were hungry so we stopped at Subway for a sandwich. Then went into the attached gift shop.
Outside
We drove back home and had the afternoon to just relax.
I made dinner for the 4 of us and after we just sat and visited some more.
Please visit Bob and Janet‘s blog to see their point of view from today.

Yes, I always think of Ed when there is some interesting history too!!
Ginger, you will have to tell us what that doll is about. It has been popping up in a few photos already... ha ha.
Me thinks Jesse and Bob would be more comfortable in your rolling condos than a teepee!!
