July 7th.

Beautiful cloudless day with temps @ 0900 around 32 degrees...it's going be a hot one. Stopped @ Wall SD, a small unassuming little US town that happens to have the most amazing tourist experience. It's called "Wall Drug" that at one time was just a family run drug store that has grown since 1931 into a massive downtown old west shopping extravaganza. Even the guys were impressed and pretended to enjoy the shopping.

Continued to our destination to the Badlands of SD. It was so interesting to see this massive jagged "mountain" range that consists of multiple layers of coloured clay and soils.



They were once the bottom of a ocean bed, and now are this rich fossilized formation are called the Badlands.



The name is in reference to the fact that nothing really existis there, no animal or plant life.



Took our time drivng through with multiple picture stops, then stopped in Kadoka for the night.
