Today was sort of a "Free Day", but with a purpose.  Custer State Park was having a "Craft Fair".  From all indications it was supposed to be a good one...  based on previous years.  Most of our group planed their day around attending the Craft Fair at some point during the day.

Lauri and I took our time during the 45 minute drive to the area.  We also brought the dogs with us.  However the plan was for them to stay in the car,  There were quite a few people at the fair.  Way more than I expected.  Some of the group figured it was due to the "Buffalo Roundup" scheduled for Sunday.  What ever the treason, there were many folks bumping into each other,
There is a great deal of South Western items for sale.  Also, many things that you look at and it seems like you REALLY NEED them very badly. (like an old shovel that had cut outs made of dogs, butterflies, humming birds, or flowers, on the blade)..  However, if you can walk away, you find out you don't need them at all.

 And don't forget the Pony and Cart rides...

After about an hour, we got back into the truck, and drove around the park to take a look at the location of the "Buffalo Roundup" scheduled for tomorrow.  The interesting thing was...  we didn't see any Buffalo, but we did see many Wild Burrows with their heads in peoples cars...After about an hour, we got back into the truck, and drove around the park to take a look at the location of the "Buffalo Roundup" scheduled for tomorrow.  The interesting thing was...  we didn't see any Buffalo, but we did see many Wild Burrows with their heads in peoples cars...

Enough is enough.  We head back to the ranch for dinner.

Dinner was interesting.  Everyone added a can of soup to the pot.  Soup or something that goes with soup, ie: beans, potatoes, tomatoes, corn, etc.  It was amazingly good...  Thans Deloris", for the great idea.  Also everyone brought a "before dinner" plate or desert.  Dinner was good as always.

After, we sat around and talk for awhile, and then all went their own way.  My way was up the hill so the Boys could do their thing before bet

Tomorrow.
