At 5am our alarm unfortunately told us we had to wake up. So we did. We both showered quickly and packed up the car before starting the long drive. Our first stop was coffee. The place we went into wasn’t technically open yet, but they said they would make us some coffee. The worst part was that they didn’t even have decaf. Who doesn’t have a decaf option? What about people like me who don’t do caffeine, or even people who do love caffeine that just want the taste of coffee in the afternoon, or with a scoop of ice cream. I’m not salty at all tho.
The drive was really really long. We stopped plenty of times for gas and bathroom break. We also stopped for breakfast, which had pretty good breakfast sandwiches. For lunch we were in Billings and found a cafe where I grabbed a wrap and ate it on the road. At this point we were ready to be there, and wanted to just keep trekking along.
We rolled into Custer a little before 8pm and checked into our HipCamp site, which was a covered wagon. Alex said this may be her favorite spot we’ve stayed, and I may agree. It was this wagon in an open field with a bed, and some benches on the side. Definitely the coziest spot we’ve stayed in.
On our drive in we saw how bumpin’ Custer was, so we made sure to head back into town after checking in. Our host told us about a spot to hit up for food, beer, and music, so we obviously went there. We ate some sliders, a local beer, and listened to a really fun band. It was a cool environment where everyone seemed to know each other. After a few hours of this, we headed back to our wagon, read, and called it a night.
