Day 6 of Road Trip

Keystone, SD: Mt. Rushmore


We started off our day at Mount Rushmore.  
I have always wanted to go there.  


We posed in front of it and walked the presidential trail to get a closer look at the faces.  


We also saw the scaled model of Mount Rushmore.

Wall, SD: Wall Drug Store


After Mount Rushmore, we stopped at Wall Drug Store.  It's basically a giant mall with a western theme.  We saw signs for it starting 300 miles away, so naturally we had to stop.

Badlands, SD: Badlands National Park


Continuing our journey east, we drove through the Badlands National Park.


We admired the mountain/dunes.  We were imagining what the pioneers thought as they came across the Badlands. 


I was able to climb to the top of one of the dunes. 



Mother Dear also climbed to the top of a dune. :)


One of our favorite parts of the Badlands was watching the baby mountain goats run around the side of the hills.
