Today was a scenic driving day in the car. With the RV's parked in the shade here at the campground we were comfortable leaving the dogs and doing some exploring. We intended to visit the Visitor Center (which we did) and then plan our day - maybe doing a hike into the Badlands. All we did was drive the loop and make frequent stops at scenic overlooks. Never did hike!
Ended up in the town of Wall, home of the famous "Wall Drug Store". Can't figure out the draw that brings hundreds or thousands of people daily to this store, but they do.
We kept talking about doing this or that, but all we did (after burgers and beers in Wall) was return to the RV park 4 1/2 hours later to check on the dogs. Planned to go out again and see the sunset but it never happened. I mean, the sun did set, we just didn't leave the park to see the color changes as it happened. We did have good intentions! Just a different pace of life out here on the road. Everything we talked about going back to do here tomorrow is now history. We are leaving in the morning for Custer State Park - about a 110 mile drive west. Not knocking the Badlands, but the drive today left us with a feeling we've seen it all here. Heading on down the road - We want MORE!
