Mount RushmoreIs There Anything Better Than A Weekend In A Chevy Beretta?Okay - you're right, if you throw in a few muttstacles, listening to the 9/11 Commission Report, travelling in pajamas, and having a friend that has no idea that we were going to drive to Mount Rushmore in the middle of the night, and sleeping in the Beretta's uncommonly spatious trunk, it could get better than that......... The Journey Begins!Curt and I met Duke in Sheboygan, and from there we road in luxury in Duke's Beretta. We ate at Arby's! Duke dodged several muttstacles, including a detour that took us more than 50 miles out of our way, but before midnight we found ourselves at Mutt's place with more than enough time to go look at a view presidents and get back to our respective Homes.
 We're always thinking Arby's!  the only way to travel  Duke likes to drive close to other vehicles  and he likes it!!  we made it to Mutt's place  and I like that.... 10/6/2006 : view on map : permalink : comments Will he go or will he stay??When we got to Mutt's he thought we were joking........who in their right mind would want to drive 30 hours in a single 2 day weekend?? WE DO!!
 Mutt still thinks we're staying at his place - so he's making a taco dip  an insincere thumbs up to the Mt Rushmore plan  PJ inspection  I think Mutt started figuring out we were serious at the first fill-up  trying to get more Beretta shots  sooooo nice!  I can't believe anyone can sleep when the 9/11 Commission Report is playing  Fill-up #2  We didn't see it, but we saw a few dozen signs for it  still fillin' her up  even though Duke was good to go, we made a driver change here 10/7/2006 : view on map : permalink : comments WE MADE IT BABY!!We proved that you can make it from Milwaukee to the Rapids City Ihop just in time for IHOP to open up on Saturday morning if you leave Friday after work.
Ironically we spent more time in the gift shop then we spent looking at the presidents.......but Curt and I did walk out of there with a stylish pair of Mount Rushmore socks.  Don't we look nice below the presidents!  Beretta at IHOP  we're getting closer  tourist traps are starting to pop-up  Duke can feel it  and BAM!! We're the first ones in the lot   Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  Goat  Goat  Goat  Goat  Museum  Museum  Presidents  Presidents  Presidents  We even stopped at the corn palace on the way back home 10/8/2006 : view on map : permalink : comments
