August 5 - September 5, 2024
Sometimes the month just flies by. August was that month for us. We deliberately didn't do much sightseeing until after the Sturgis Rally. We eventually made the Needles and Iron Mountain Loop one afternoon.
It was our month for doctors and dentists in the Rapid City area. This year it seemed we had more follow-up visits than usual. We felt like we were running into town just about every other day.
On top of the medical visits, we had repairs and some deep cleaning to do after the Alaska highways. The windshield replacement was an overnight at the only glass shop in Rapid that handled motorhome windshields. We had, and still have for that matter, a rear jack that's giving us trouble.
Then, our campground was hit with hail during a storm. Just about everything plastic on the roof had to be replaced - A/C covers, fan covers, TV antenna, and vent covers. Our 360 camera housings took a hit too. We were in town during the storm, sparing our Jeep. There was more than one cracked windshield. The insurance agents and mobile repair guys were busy. So thankful Harold is willing and able to get up on the roof!
The next few weeks will be busy. We're having to rethink some of our fall plans. Medical issues will mean a return to the area. We really like our doctors here.
