Little Big Horn – Custer’s Last Stand

I thought yesterday would be my last stand, I was so sick. But I am rallying back and going to the Little Big Horn Battlefield where Custer had his last stand.

We walked the National Cemetery and looked at the dates  on the tombstones. image     image  Many buried here were from WW II and some were recipients of the Medal of Honor.                             Rangers gave talks about the Battle of Little Big Horn image and we saw the marker where Custer fell to his death.image image Custer is actually buried back East at West Point. The large marker is the mass grave of his soldiers but the small markers are where they actually fell during the battle. image   image   Nice day and the sky was so pretty.image  

We decided to go back to Billings, MT and head to Cody in the am.  We stayed at Cabela’s parking lot and only out here in the West will you see this. image   image    A corral to put your horses in while you shop!
