Last weekend, we came to the Badlands National Park, and were struck by the beauty of this area. Driving through South Dakota, you see many miles of prairies and rolling hills, and then, WHAM! Huge cliffs and mountains! Really neat stuff.
There are wildlife here, buffalo, deer, birds, prairie dogs, but it is a very rough terrain for humans. The strong winds that seem to never stop, strong storms, and blizzards are what make the Badlands special. :)
We camped here for one night, in the National Park, but decided we needed to head out the next day so that Todd can have the much needed internet and cell service required!
The Badlands also has a great visitor's center with a museum, video and Jr. Ranger program! Yeah!
What was also nice, is just a mile down the road, was ANOTHER Jr. Ranger program at the Minuteman Missile National Historic Site. The kids were able to earn 2 badges within a days time! Whoo Hoo!
Keep up the good work Golden Gang! :)
Blessings,
Steph
