RE: Custer State Park
custer state park is a great place to stay, very scenic.
I would stay at Game Lodge campground (water, dump station and elec hookups)
because it is closest to a very scenic route to Mt. Rushmore.
from the campground, go east and then north on highway 16A.
it circles around to highway 244 and Mt. Rushmore.
the park will have a map showing the roads.
when you continue on west to yellowstone, you can take 16 west out of Custer over to Newcastle, WY and then head in whichever direction you were planning to go.
We loved Custer State Park ! It was the best part of our trip ! We also stayed at Game Lodge campground Site #30 or #33 can't remember, but it was back by the creek close to the ampitheater ( barn). Loved It ! There is also a laundry room and the restrooms where very nice !

RE: Quick Overnight stays
We have often been in a hurry to get from one place to another, and we always travel with children. We have used this site a lot in finding over night spots, which also provided a place for the kids to stretch there legs.

We have only overnighted at one Wal Mart and it was in Laramie WY. Our daughter called it Wal Mart National Park !
We will always remember what a great time we had !
Good luck to you,
If we knew what route you were taking we could recommend some places.

RE: Mount Rushmore
We stayed at Game Lodge in the park ! Loved every minuet of it ! Even decided if we went back it would just be to stay in the park ! Site #33 I think. A beautiful creek running through it,and close to everything. But we are big open space people, we don't like being right next to other campers. Also the restrooms were very clean and they have a nice laundry. But buy your groceries before you go in to the park.

Buy/pay off or make payments ?
WOW< Can't believe I'm typing this...we are selling the house !
we have a 07, 5er and love it, but if all goes well we will probably upgrade to something a a bit bigger and all-weather. So do we pay it off or do we make payments ? I know it will depreciate so making payments makes since to me...

RE: Yellowstone-Flathead Lake-Glacier-Grand Teton
Fishing Bridge is a great location to see everything from and we were gone ALL day ! so it was just a place to sleep, plus it snowed every morning but one so the heater was nice ! And the showers were closed the first couple of days we were there. But we are investing in a generator so we can stay where we can have more space.
The fishing was banned at fishing bridge because that is where the fish spawn and if you take the time to walk across the bridge in the spring you can actually see them. We also saw beavers and Pelicans.
It really is a neat place. Last year a mother Grizzly and her two cubs crossed the bridge a ranger happened to be on the bridge at the time and got a ride from someone coming across in there truck.
But we have decided a generator is going to be a very good investment !
OH and FYI, the store there has a bargin area upstairs, and as we went into some of the other stores, we spotted things that were not on sale in them, that the Fishing bridge store had on sale.
Life is God's gift to you.
What you do with your life is your gift to God.

Yellowstone we stayed at Fishing Bridge, Flathead Lake Mt, we stayed at Finley Point St. Park becasue it was close to my sisters house, and Glacier we stayed at Apgar, Two Medicine, and Johnson RV Park, Grand Tetons we stayed at Colter Bay campground ( Not the RV Park ).
We took some great hikes to see beautiful waterfalls !
And we had our "first" Walmart Stay at Laramie Wy. Which Was GREAT. Our Daughter called it Walmart National Park ! On the edge of town with a beautiful view !
We met the nicest people and had a great time !

RE: Mueller State Park Colorado Pictures ?
Here as some from last summer. We had site #44 which backed up to the ridge with a great view of Pike's Peak:
Site #44 (Conifer Ridge loop):

We were at the end of the loop. This shot is looking down the road toward our site:
http://inlinethumb20.webshots.com/32083/2980835920051643869S600x600Q85.jpg width=640
I actually went on your link you gave me earlier and looked at your photos ! It looked like you had a great vacation ! I was going to reserve 2 sites up that loop, but they looked like most were to short for our rig. and we needed 2 side by side. We are traveling with my cousin. Thanks for great pictures.
Actually I can't find it now, but I remember seeing your pictures.

Thermopolis Wyoming Camp Ground ?
We are looking for a Campground in Thermopolis Wyoming. I have looked at several, and I am still not sure.
We will have our two grandsons that are 12 and our 6 year old Granddaughter. So we thought about the one with the mineral springs, so they could swim .
Our 5er is 35ft and we will be traveling with another family that will have smaller children and a TT.
We Just need one night on our way to Yellowstone.

RE: ks rv parks
Wellington Lake
Several years ago we camped there in a tent, it is a nice little lake.
I think it's the nicest thing your going to find "close" to Wellington.
This is what the web site says about it;
Wellington Lake has so much to offer!
Beautiful campsites! Electric and water hook-ups available.
Three (3) large boat ramps.
1-mile mowed nature trail provides excellent opportunities for hiking.
Handicap-accessible fishing pier is well lit and safe.
Well-maintained covered picnic areas with grills.
Two shower/restroom facilities
Swimming area away from boat and fishing activity.
Duck blind rentals available in the fall.
