Trip to South Dakota

We arrived in South Dakota late this afternoon. The flight in was pretty nice, although we hit some nasty turbulence.
The first place we went to the Black Hills Institute of Geological Research museum in Hill City. They have an incredible collection of dinosaurs, including a complete Acrocanthosaurus, two Tyrannosaurus and a herd of Gallimimus. We got the chance to visit their warehouses where they store hundreds of bones. The highlight of this trip was when we got to see them prepping the skeletons of a T-rex, Triceratops and Duckbill.

I left at 5:00 pm and drove five hours into Wyoming and then Montana.
