Crossing the South-western United States has really been fun, and entering into South Dakota, just icing on the cake. I went to the Wolly Mamoth Dig today. What a cool place. It turns out back in the late 70´s some South Dakota dude came across some mammoth bones while excavating for a home. He sold the land to the museum for the price he bought it and they have been digging ever since. They have dug up 15+/- mammoths alone, plus fox, rabbits, llamas, (yup, thats right, they used to be in north-america as well) gazelles, and other critters all from the same site. The first two pictures are things they dug up. The skeleton of the bear head is designed to scare you. Well, not me, I was able to take the picture without my knees shaking too much.
The third picture is of some type of big hairy thing out on the prairie. She was not interested in giving out any birth-day kisses to Pepíllon, which is just as well. She smelt bad.

P.S. Barney, now the next time your mom makes baked beans, you just help your self to the last 3 servings, and ask for the last of the brocoli, too. And when your mom corrects your behavior, you just have to say ¨I am just trying to keep up with my God Father. That is why you chose him? Right! He leads by shining example, and I am following suit. Can´t falt a feller for trying.¨
