Where the Buffalo Roam

Thought I'd update this now since we will be in some extremely small towns the next couple of days and likely wont have internet.

Today we road into Chamberlain, about 75 miles from Mitchell.  It rained all day long, but it wasn't too cold and turned out to be one of my favorite rides of the trip.  Just took it slow with a few other guys and made tons of hilarious jokes all day.  We saw a herd of buffalo running together today too, which was super cool.

Went for a nice run when we got in.  Chamberlain is right along the Missouri river so we ran across that and then along the river tonight.

Zernyu, my new duties partner, and I, were on dinner duty today.  We made fifty grilled cheeses and a large pot of tomato soup.  I think everybody was impressed by our ability.  Zernyu is a good dude. 

We need to find fireworks for tomorrow night.  Its definitely possible Murdo, SD does not have town fireworks
