We have not spent much time with the grandkids this summer so we planned a day trip involving some geocaching. We traveled south to the college community of Vermillion because it had two adventure lab caches.
We started our adventure in Prentis Park.
the amphitheater
built in 1937 as a WPA project
location of the SD Shakespeare Festival
a flour mill stone from the first flour mill in Dakota Territory 1868
our geocaching sidekicks
After lunch we went to the campus of University of South Dakota for more geocaching.
Danforth Chapel built in 1954
Belbas Center featuring Sioux Quartzite

East Hall built in 1887
originally built as a women's dorm

The following photos were taken by a guest photographer. Grandson McBe took an interest in my camera, so the next group of photos are his. He is almost 10 years old. I did not make any changes to his photos.
final stop of the day
