Venturing into the Badlands of South Dakota!

Hi Guys,

It is me again, Millie;

Well we got here, at the Badlands and I don’t know what all the fuss was about, the place looks fine to me.

As soon as we had parked the RV, we all jumped into the car to explore the area and for once I didn’t snooze as we drove and I could see the ‘Badlands’ approaching.

We were in and out of the car, looking at all these crazy rocks, well they just looked like mud to me to be honest, but when climbed up a few of them and you would have thought I was a one year old!

Every time we got near an edge, Mum was holding the lead tight enough to strangle me so that I wouldn’t fall over.

She forgets that I have sharp claws and not the slippery flat feet that humans have – ha ha!

Everywhere we went there were signs warning about Rattlesnakes, I didn’t see or smell one of them, but I could tell Mum and Dad were a bit nervous, the way they kept looking around, I am sure it wasn’t just the scenery.

We went to the top of here (photo below)!

Even the view of the Badland rocks from the RV was nice, if I say so myself and the place was so quiet, a bit different from some of the places we have stayed.

Well the sun was baking hot and the mud rock was hot on my feet so I squeaked to be put in the stroller.

I didn’t like it when we first had it, but I like it now – Ahhhh, this is the life!

There was even a place where there were fossils found, which Mum told me is all about animals that died many, many years ago (here we go again, this fascination with dead things!)

Well after a day exploring the Badlands, we packed up the RV for a drive to a place called Salam, where Mum told me Witches live.

Now I have to admit I didn’t know what a Witch was, but I didn’t want Mum to know I didn’t know, so I asked Dad and he told me they were people who did magic, like making things appear and disappear, well, I thought, that’s nothing special, Mum and Dad are forever making my treats appear and disappear – big deal!

Bye for now, your friend, Millie x

    Sounds like the trip of a life time. I can’t wait for Millie to tell me all about it in person. Come back to TV. 😀
