Cross Country Road Trip - June 7















We are now in Badlands National Park, South Dakota. This is an AMAZING place. Georgeous hoodoos, like driving through the bottom of Bryce canyon. We took a 60-mile scenic tour through the park, stopping at waysides, a fossil boardwalk, and stopped at Wall Drug for ice cream and postcards. Bizarre place. The picture above is mountain goats.

Last night we stayed at a great SD State Campground called Lake Vermillion. It has a nice beach/swim area, similar to Pearrygin. The drive here was super windy, with strong gusts coming from the side (southwest). We disconnected the car and drove separately which helped alot. Weather has been pretty hot. Yesterday was a record 99 in Sioux Falls, SD, but today is a mild 92. Tomorrow it's supposed to be 75. Tomorrow we head off to Custer State Park.
