Days 5-6: Belle Fourche to Rapid City




Saturday night we arrived in Belle Fourche where luke played a concert for a smaller youth crowd but it was great, its been a big change going from a full band to solo so the feedback was really encouraging for Luke. We were also taken care of like kings it was really nice for the boys and I cause our hotel had pool which is what we did while Luke had his concert. We also got to spend some time with the Youth Pastors Clay and Miranda and really connected with them, they have awesome hearts for the Lord and the Youth in their city. We also went to their church this morning and luke got invited to play a song for their service, and we even ran into a couple who used to live in the valley, what a small world it is. We finally started towards Rapid City since Luke will be playing here tomorrow, and we have a lot of site seeing to do in this area. We went to TATANKA Kevin Costners Interpretive Center about the buffalo and Native Americans, or I should say Luke and Noah did. Gabe was sleeping and I didn't feel like killing my back walking through the center carrying him, so we stayed and napped in the car. Then we drove through Deadwood, saw where Wild Bill was shot and then drove through Lead an old gold mining town. Tomorrow we stay again in Rapid City and are going to the Reptile Gardens and maybe Mount Rushmore before lukes show, and then we start making our way to Junction City. So there will definately be good pics tomorrow!
