Rapid City SD

Saw a lot of flooding on the way south to South Dakota. These shots were from US Highway 29. The road was closed several mile south of our exit.
You're looking at sand bags.


The water was even closer to the road than it looks here.

We are at the Lazy J RV Park on a hill overlooking Rapid City



Rapid City lights up at night.


The cards are the ones he was holding when he was shot.

These is labeled as the chair that Wild Bill Hickok was sitting in when he was shot


This is a neat downtown area.


Custer State Park
This is the campground for the workers. They share the place with the buffalo.


Mount Rushmore is barely seen in the distance. 


We caught a glimpse through this tunnel. 

Ran into a road block.


They are gentle and always looking for a handout.




Now you can get a good look at the faces.

This walkway is the entrance to the park.


It doesn't look any different than the first time we saw it over 20 years ago.
Came across a guy who does some fabulous chain saw art.

After this we headed home.
