Today we arrived in Gregory, South Dakota! You can look down the road and see for miles and the closest Walmart is 110 miles away, you really have to travel to get somewhere! We started off the day in Grand Island, Nebraska. Dad driving and everyone else asleep. We stopped at a Walmart to get some food then we headed down the road but went back to the Walmart to make and eat lunch. Sandwiches for everybody! After filling up our stomachs we headed to get an unbalanced tire, well…balanced. Dad met some pretty neat people while mom and I took the dog to a park where we swung on the swings and went on the teeter totter.
After all of that, we got loaded up on the RV once again and we’re off. We went through a little town named Spencer and my brother got a picture next to the sign because his name is Spencer. Spence said that he felt appreciated because the town was named after him. We kept moving along and stopped every once in a while to take a picture (of course). We played cards and slept all the while poor old Dad was behind the wheel of the ferocious RV. The dog was the queen of the RV always taking the front seat with the most air conditioning.
Finally after a long day of sitting around in the RV we arrived in Gregory, South Dakota. We ate at a little diner named Ranch House. The food was excellent and we met some very nice people. After that we went back to the farm and set up camp. Dad and I went out to the wheat fields to shoot some B-Roll and take pictures. Mom and I went on a nice walk while Dad met the farmer and his wife (Tom and Lois).
We have enjoyed ourselves a lot today. We look forward to the days ahead of shooting the Wheat Harvest Movie! Be sure to check back daily for our updates.
