I’ll probably end up having lunch at Wall Drug again. Then either Devil’s tower or Deadwood, depending on how much time I spend in the park.

 

When complete, South Dakota will make 13.

Currently in Rapid City, South Dakota

Bison short ribs – fantastic 😋

Lewis and Clark camped near here both westbound and eastbound

 

A scenic viewpoint along I-90 about 80 miles east of Rapid City

Buffalo burger at the famous tourist trap, Wall Drug. Good!

Fairly easy drive today, all freeway (I-90). I’ll probably stop at Wall Drug – should be a good place to find a South Dakota fridge magnet and they also have reasonably good food. Wall Drug is however, be every definition of the phrase, a “tourist trap”. But that’s OK, I like visiting tourist traps.

I’ll then be spending three nights in Rapid City where I have a rather ambitious schedule. I plan on visiting the Badlands National Park, Mt. Rushmore, the Crazy Horse memorial and, if there’s time, Devil’s Tower in northeast Wyoming.
