    Time to head home....

    August 8, 2017 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    We have officially started home now with longer travel days and shorter stops along the way. Our first stop was to see the wood carvings done by a chainsaw carver in Keystone, SD. He was a very talented guy with beautiful carvings that we wished we could have afforded. Next stop was at Wall Drugstore in Wall, South Dakota. Though we were advised to keep driving, we had to see it at least once. The hundreds of billboards we similar to Pedro's South of the Border signs on the east coast. Interesting store but we can continue driving next time. The same was true with our next stop in Mitchell, South Dakota at the Corn Palace. We're seen it once and that's enough. It had many huge pictures all made out of corn cobs... over 275,000 to be exact. Not a stop we'll need to make again but interesting. We ended our day stopping for the night in Sioux Falls, SD. They have done a nice job with their Park along the falls. The falls were small in comparison to the beautiful ones we saw in Oregon but obviously a token of pride for the people of Sioux Falls.Read more
