Day One: Des Moines, Iowa - Wall, SD

We started our journey just after 10am with our final destination being Wall, SD. While getting gas at Sinclair – I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to take a pic with the dino statue then CATWMAN was scootin’ along through South Dakoter. We stopped at the 50ft Dignity statue and were blown away by its beauty and size. In my opinion it was cooler than Mt. Rushmore. We made it to Wall, SD and checked in to our hotel. We stopped by the wacky Wall Drug area with a little under an hour to take it in (truth be told, we had visited Wall Drug on a previous road trip). We decided to eat at the Badlands Bar where we tried some local beers and shared a bacon mac & cheese, fried pickle fries, and a side salad. The waitress was bustin’ a move – and that’s one thing I’ll say ….every front desk person, waitress, staff member of wherever we went was hustling. The front desk lady at the hotel was there checking us in in the evening and she was there in the morning to get us our grab-and-go breakfast bags out of the fridge. Shout out to these fine people and tip them well if you find yourself traveling and able to do so.
