From Driving from Gillette to Rapid City |
We were about 37 miles east of Gillette when I realized that we could see Devils Tower which was around 25 miles north of I-90. We pulled over and stopped on the shoulder long enough to take some photos; this is the only one that was a "keeper".

and saw these red buttes at the Wyoming and South Dakota state lines. We entered South Dakota a little before 11:00.

We arrived in Rapid City just before noon.
We took Exit 61 south on US-61 and passed by this Mobil station and saw these sculptures.

We then drove south on SR-79 to Upper Spring Creek Road and then west until we reached the entrance to Hart Ranch Resort around 12:30.

We are in site #316, a back-in, with full hookups (50 amp elec) and free wi-fi and we are just a few steps away from one of the laundromats here. We are staying here with our Coast to Coast membership. We did have to pay a $23.21 resort fee for the 4 days that we will be here.
We had a short driving day today - only 154 miles. After we leveled the RV, put our slides out and hooked up to the electric, we stopped to eat lunch before we finished setting up the RV. Mike set up our portable satellite dish because it's quite windy here and our rooftop dish flops and looses the signal.
Later this afternoon we called American Home Base in Pensacola and told them to send our mail to General Delivery in Forest City, IA.
We were so busy settling in here, that we forgot to take photos of the campground. We'll put it on our to do list for tomorrow.
