Road trip to Interior, South Dakota

7/29/09


We left Mitchell, S.D and headed on interstate 90 west. We had slight rain and a 2 lane, 25 mile road construction on the interstate. After we crossed the Missouri River, the landscape changed to very hilly and rolling land






Missouri River


Interesting sites along the road.


Dark skies and more hay.
Beautiful cloud formation.

Sturgis bikers ahead
The white spots in the field are white cattle. ( Double click on picture to see them)

Beautiful drive, especially with the big sky and endless land. ( Badlands in the distance)


We saw signs of Wall Drug in Western Minnesota, and the closer we got to the city of Wall, they became more numerous. Near the end of our travel, they were every 1/4 mile. I guess we better go and see what it's all about!
We travel 240 miles today, with a 6 hour drive including to pit stops. ( lunch & a break for Joe)
