Saw the Corn Palace in South Dakota. This building spends $170,000 a year to decorate the exterior and interior of their building with corn! We drove through Badlands National Park. This was beautiful! Joe and I climbed all over. We finished the drive and stopped at Wall Drug, a tourist trap mini-mall. Drove to Rapid City, SD then south to Mt. Rushmore. We got in at dusk and watched the sun set behind the faces. When I first saw it I thought, "wow, that’s smaller than in the pictures." Still cool. Lincoln winked at me. We found a spot to stay the night at a campground south of Mt. Rushmore. Started a fire with sticks and 1 match! Today was the first day that I started to really feel like I was on break. It was great to just drive, relax and enjoy the scenic spots with no obligations other than where I will sleep and eat.
