Wall Drug

Roger got up early this morning - around 5 am!! - and it was 67 degrees! He wanted to clean all the bugs off the motorhome and car while there was some dew to help - but no dew - too windy and arid. The bugs were so plentiful and big it sounded like someone was throwing mud balls at the window when they hit - nasty! Roger said the vent to the generator was full of dead grasshoppers!
We drove the scenic loop road through Badlands National Park and Buffalo Gap National Grassland this morning. A glorious day in the low 80's! We saw antelope; a mule deer and prairie dogs - hard to get their picture - they pop in and out of their holes so fast! Hard to imagine how difficult it was to homestead out here - a tough life to be sure!
We followed the signs to Wall Drug. Not exactly my kind of shopping but we checked it off our "bucket list!"
