We set up camp at Wall Drug store in Wall, SD.(Not really a campground, mind you, we didn’t pull into Wall until about 12:30 am on Wed. morning, so we just slept in the parking lot and waited for them to open.)
Breakfast was in the RV, cereal and stuff, then we set off to explore the world famous Wall Drug Store. Michael had visited it as a child and his mom reported that he had loved it. We bought some of their homemade donuts, watched the T-Rex do its thing, bought souvenirs and were on our way. Next stop the Badlands. This was just a short jaunt from Wall. We all marveled at the odd-looking eroded formations and even spotted mountain goats on some of the peaks. Next destination: Mt Rushmore; the faces on the mountain.
We arrived in Rapid City, SD around lunch time and ate Red Lobster. Then onward to the faces. Trenton and Devin both fell fast asleep on the way up those winding Black Hills roads to Mt. Rushmore. Devin woke up in time and caught the first glimpses of the sculptures. We let Trenton sleep awhile longer and then set off to explore the monument.
