We had breakfast at the hotel and then drove on thru Billings. We were hoping to meet up with a Babyzone friend named Chelly (and her boys) but we ended up missing her. I wasn’t able to call her ahead of time as I had wanted due to lack of service an ultimately a dead battery. I was really bummed that we didn’t get to meet up!

We stopped at a rest stop outside of Billings and I swear the bathrooms looked like a prison. Erin agreed. Something about the big metal doors and metal toilets. We drove on to Rosebud, Montana where Erin’s great grandmother grew up. Erin was hoping to get info on the family, as well as track down a sign that his great grandmother had her pic taken in front of. No luck on either, though. We had lunch at a cafe in the small town and visited the Rosebud museum. Erin picked up a book from the museum that has a blurb about his great grandmother.

Patrick saw a cloud that he thought looked like a fish. I think he was tired of listening to Nolan cry since he begged Nolan to take a nap. We spent the night in South Dakota.
