Day 10 Badlands to Keystone

Started the day in the Badlands, it was cloudy and started to rain, so I left for Mt. Rushmore. I did spend some time in Wall getting gifts and being a tourist.

On the way here two idiots going about 90 almost cause a major accident. I had seen them coming up beside me and there were two cars in front of me side by side and these guys were not slowing down. I slowed after they passed me and they came up on the bumpers of the cars in front. They then started weaving to get by and one guy near swerved into the other.

After arriving in Keystone I got a room, due to the rain, it is supposed to warm up in the next day or so and I hope to get outside again.

Since I have been in the car for so many hours I got out and played tourist all day in Keystone. I still have a lot more to explore. I did locate the local chocolate and fudge store so all is good. Good thing I don’t have a girlfriend right now, they have many nice outfits. Of course I would then have to get a Harley to complete the ensemble.

Went up to the monument this evening and as soon as I got there it started pouring. Today was a free day so at least I didn’t have to pay. Tomorrow I will be up before the sun, if the sun comes out. Well I will be up anyway, if it is not pouring I will be on the mountain first thing.


Good night.
