THE BADLANDS!!!!

We arrived in the Badlands around noon. It was such a cool experience to drive into the National Park and BOOM, there are the Badlands. Words and pictures cannot aptly describe the magnificent landscape. It really does deserve to have Bad in its name!

Cedar Pass Campground is located in the park but is first come/first serve beginning at noon. We got a site with electric (no water or sewer) and drove the loop around the park to get our bearings. We attended the park Evening Program around 9PM. Tonight's presentation was about the black-footed ferret and was interesting and very informative. Our main reason for attending the program was the night sky viewing but the weather was not cooperative.

We (I) thought we had experienced open winds off Lake Superior. We were sooo wrong. The storm in SD woke us up and forced us to put in the slides (afraid the slide toppers were going to tear). This RV was a rocking!
