July 17, we left Rapid City, South Dakota and headed east.  Having seen all the sites on our bucket list!! We drove through the northern section of the Badlands.

At the northern gateway of the Badlands is the town of Wall.  A small town with one thing - a drug store.

In 1936, the owners of the drug store started a marketing campaign to attract tourist by offering free ice water.  It worked - they have signs all along the road - even in Europe!!  It now takes up a whole block and the signs remind me of South of Border but at a smaller scale.

We crossed the Missouri River

Rest Areas in South Dakota all have these.

We stayed in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
