Today we went to Rushmore Black Hills Gold factory and did a tour. We got to see a lot of the stages of making jewelry. We also looked in the retail store, and then we went to a Sioux pottery factory. We actually got to paint pottery. Mine has one butterfly and two flowers on it, plus my name. We also went to The Journey Museum in Rapid City, SD. There are areas on archeology, Indians, and pioneers. My favorite area was the pioneer area. One of the things I liked in that area was the two saddles that you could get on. The two saddles were a regular western saddle and a side-saddle. The side saddle was not very comfortable, but the western one was comfortable though. It was a high back one. There were many other kinds of saddles, but we could not get on them. In the evening, we went to the Circle B Ranch for a chuck wagon supper. My sister and I had chicken. You also get a “smashed” potato, ginger cake, applesauce, cowboy beans, biscuits, and lemonade. About 15 minutes later, there was a show where three out of the four sons were there to sing with their dad. The guys that sang were Todd, Nick, Zach, and there dad was Dale. I got 1 bookmark and four postcards.
