Heading Home: Alberta and Montana at 75 mph

We headed out of our hotel after a free waffle and some juice, heading back into the U.S.  We scooted through customs again, no hassles other than we had to dispose of our oranges.  Keep in mind, today was about distance so all the pictures shared were taken at 75 mph in Montana. 

We saw many fields of wheat, some being harvested, and many round bales.  It was fun to be in ag. land again (says Mike).  We felt at home in the flat and when we saw wind turbines, it was thought we may have reached home early.

In the background of the wind turbine may be Glacier National Park which we thought to be about 40 miles away.  After a brief stop at a western-wear store (it was connected to the gas station & it doesn't hurt to at least look) we made it through Montana and into Wyoming.  Rest assured--no clothing purchases were made.  We are currently in Sheridan, WY.  We had dinner at Sanford's Grub, Pub, and Brew.  Man, we took in some big portions.  To Mike's apparent dismay, we did pass on Rocky Mountain Oysters. The 1/2 pound burger with a huge slab of cream cheese kept Mike content while a taco salad meant for two kept Sara at bay.

Tomorrow we aim to head  to Devils Tower National Monument, being neither of us have experienced it yet.  From there we are planning on heading on towards the Badlands.  As we sit and look at the map at this moment, we also notice an alluring "Geographic Center of the U.S." site marked just slightly into South Dakota.  Well now... Anyway, we think we'll head to the Badlands and maybe even camp.  We're slightly apprehensive though, with a high of 90's and low's of, well, still hot, maybe the hotel idea is working to our advantage.  We will have one more night out.  We hope to camp at the Cedar Shores Resort in Chamberlain, SD.  Last time we were here (on a road trip out to Cheyenne, WY), we heard whippoorwills.  We are hoping for the same before heading into Minnesota late Sunday.
