We made it!

We have all afternoon and evening here, and from what we can see, there is a lot to do!

We've been seeing signs advertising the Wall Drug Store for about 150 miles.
It does not disappoint!

Wall is located on the outskirts of The Badlands. We could see parts of them while riding in. and the scenery is breathtaking!

We are having a bison burger for lunch at Badlands Grill & Saloon before checking in to our hotel and Yes! I'm taking the cups home as souvenirs!

We have ridden a total of 2,120 miles so far.Meer informatie

Badlands & Wall Drug
6 augustus 2021, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 81 °F
Yesterday we didn't do anything but watch some movies, which was a welcome day off.

This morning Ben and I are doing the Badlands Loop from Interior, SD, to Wall, SD. Although he's been to Sturgis before, he hasn't been out here, so it's been a nice morning watching his eyes pop and mouth drop when he sees the natural magnificence of the Badlands. We also saw a huge herd of Buffalo.

We're at Wall Drug now for lunch. Great day so far.

So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️

Wall Drug, Since 1931
24 juni 2019, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ⛅ 73 °F
Homemade pie for the second time today? Yes please.

Wall Drug is a weird place. It started out as a pharmacy and general store in the '30s. Since SD is sparsely populated they have to lure in the tourists with all these crazy road signs, like sirens singing to the sailors!

Once there you are surprised to find out they make their own pie, doughnuts, and ice cream. Plus they have the oldest operating soda fountain in the US. Not that the soda fountain looked old fashioned at all. Soft serve ice cream machines and coke fountain drink machines. Rather disappointing. But the pie was not disappointing.

To staff their place in the height of tourist season Wall Drug hires international students to come and work for a few weeks. They house them during their employment. We spoke with a girl from Kazakhstan who seemed less than impressed with Wall, SD. Lol.Meer informatie

A stop at the Wall Drug Store…
30 september 2023, Verenigde Staten ⋅ 🌬 25 °C
In 1931, Ted Hustead, a pharmacist, bought Wall Drug, located in a 231-person town in what he referred to as "the middle of nowhere," and strove to make a living. Business was very slow until his wife, Dorothy, thought of advertising free ice water to thirsty travelers heading to the newly opened Mount Rushmore monument 60 miles (97 km) to the west. From that time on, business was brisk.

It is a fun stop, put it on your bucket list for your next travels through South Dakota.Meer informatie

Across South Dakota
14 september 2023, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ☁️ 66 °F
Back on I-90 heading west across South Dakota. This interstate really runs across the southern side of the state and it's all about the crops. Corn, soybeans, sorghum, and lots of sunflowers. (Sadly past bloom, but all the brown heads still bent towards the sun) on and on...

Drove into some weather, had some rain, but it wasn't cold. Even though it's a major stop for tourists, I still had Tom stop at Wall Drug. Perfect lunch break (bison burger) and had a 5¢ cup of coffee with the deep fried, fresh donuts! While Tom went back to the RV to nap, I got to meander thru this huge store. Just tons, and tons of souvenirs and gift items. Of course they have several kids areas that include a jackalope and a dinosaur 🦖

Just was fun to walk around and watch all the tourists walking around... And even though it was over cast, the weather was nice.Meer informatie

I had a great day yesterday on the bike, then hanging out at karaoke in town.

Today I have run about 80 miles down I-90 to Badlands Harley Davidson in Wall, SD.

That's all for now. Don't forget to be awesome! ✌️
