Day 4: Mitchell, SD

We're catching up on the blog because we haven't had internet for a few days! I picked up Brant at the airport on Saturday and we headed to Mitchell, SD. We stopped in Kansas City for lunch at the Smokehouse because Brant heard that Kansas City had great BBQ - and it was! We got to Mitchell about 8PM and were greeted by the whole Vermeulen gang! Seth's grandma, who we were staying with, had made a big dinner and they were all waiting on us to eat. We got to hang out with everyone Saturday night and then toured the town of Mitchell on Sunday before we left. It's a really small town with lots of farmers and not much else, but it's really cool. We did stop by to see the famous "corn palace" and Cabela's. Brant was a good boy at Cabela's and we were only there about 10 minutes and left empty handed! A couple of Seth's uncles are farmers, so we stopped by their houses to check out their land and animals. Brant enjoyed the land, and i enjoyed the animals :) I was really excited because one of his uncles told us to come by and see his baby pigs. So, in my mind, I was going to get to hold this cute little baby pink pig - not the case! He was taking us around the barn to the pigs, and I almost couldn't round the corner because it smelled so bad! And the baby's were not pink, and they weighed about 100lbs and they were covered in mud! We had a great time in Mitchell and left on Sunday to drive to Custer State Park, SD! It was a beautiful 5 hour drive through South Dakota!!
