2026 Vacation Trip To South Dakota

Post by JEBar » Thu Jun 11, 2026 10:10 am

if things go as planned, next week on Wed the 17th seven members of our family plus a friend of our oldest grandson will head to South Dakota for a week's vacation ..... early on the morning of the 17th Maureen, our oldest grandson and one of his friends plan to head west in our Chevy 2500 .... later that afternoon our youngest son and his wife will head west in their Chevy 1500 .... a day later our daughter and her son are scheduled to fly out there .... while out there we will stay in a Air B&B .... that will be a first for us .... while there we plan to attend the Estelline Rodeo --- https://estellinerodeo.com/index.html .... in addition, the ladies have a bunch of other things planned .... those who have followed our trips out there since 1977 know that our family really enjoys the beef steaks we get at the butcher shop in the local grocery store ... the reason we will drive out trucks out there for this trip is so we can bring back several thousand dollars worth of steaks and other cuts of meat .... this will be our first out of state trip in our truck and we are looking forward seeing how she performs .... we plan to spend one night on the road during the drive out there .... our son and his wife plan to drive straight through

Making that trip without towing your big RV will seem like a breeze. Enjoy the scenery and safe travels to all.
