Day 4

We left Mitchell on Monday morning and headed west to the Black Hills...with a few stops along the way.

How can you NOT stop at 1880 town!?
We were hungry for lunch and had no idea how big of a stop this was going to be. It did not disappoint!

This was a good laugh!
Crazy rabbits!

Reece is a big fan of rocks.

A 1950s Train Diner in 1880 Town. It was a confusing time for all.  ;)

Ha! Not a clue who the McNasty Bros. are but I got a good chuckle!

Off to lunch in the train cars.

Off to explore!

FYI...if any of my KC friends are wanting to visit, you are  643 miles away from 1880 Town.

Busted!

I told the boys we could afford to live here forever!
Lodging per night.....25 cents
Eating....25 cents
Nice!!

The Saloon was beautiful!

Oh, Reece...your face might stay that way!

Jake spent a lot of summers in South Dakota growing up... he was raised to hate prairie dogs. That's one MASSIVE prairie dog!

Next stop... The BIG Badlands.

Thank goodness for selfie sticks!

We just paid to drive through the park. So crazy to go from prairie land to this!

Now if you've ever driven through South Dakota, you've seen about 1000 billboards for Wall Drug. Jake had never been so we had to stop to see what the fuss was all about. It was a zoo! Just total chaos!! But we checked it off! 

FYI. The west begins here.

We did enjoy the free water that was advertised on one of the billboards. Oh...and had some yummy pie and ice cream as a mid afternoon snack.

And we finally made it to the Black Hills. 

Got a quick peak at George on our way to our campsite.

Tent up, time for dinner and some relaxation!

Picture perfect views from our site.

We bought some new cards. The boys wanted to play "Spoons" but we forgot the spoons...so we improvised and played "Pinecone" hehe.

Camping or not...my skin did not get neglected. So easy and a personal priority!
