Across America Redux: South Dakota

By the time we made it through North Dakota and in to the South one... we were bored.
The eastern part of the state offers a dismal view of vastness.  1880 did provide a bit of inspiration.  We're planning to build 1980 town across the way as competition.  Trust me... 1980 is waaaaayyyy cooler!
I will say South Dakota impressed us the closer we go toward the West.  The Badlands National Park was never on my "must-see" list.  Boy - was I wrong.  Have YOU seen it?  WOW!



Numerous friends said, "Oh!  You have to go to Wall Drug Store!"
The only place in the country where you have your choice of Jackalope paraphernalia: 
And this type of "art?"

Enough of that... and on to this:

Even with the sun in the absolute worst spot... the view was impressive.

Wall Drug has awesome marketing skills. You see so many signs that you go just out of curiousity
