Wall Drug, South Dakota

All during our drive through west Minnesota and the entire state of South Dakota, we saw advertisement signs every few miles or so for a place called "Wall Drug," located near Mount Rushmore in western South Dakota. You can see some of these in our collage of them. This represents only a fraction of the signs that we saw during our eight-hour drive.

Since we had nothing else to do, we thought, "Hey, why not! Let's go to this 'Wall Drug' place." It is basically an old-west style drug store which now consists of several buildings selling mostly tourist items, home-cooked meals, and a few actual drug store items. It also has a courtyard with various games and other entertainment. You can see us in the courtyard, me on a jackalope and Eran on an old settler's wagon.

  1. that's no ordinary jackrabbit - that my friends is a jackalope! (note the characteristic antlers) few have seen this elusive creature alive.

  2. Oh boy, I was having so much fun at Wall Drug, I didn't even notice his antlers! hahaha... There were plenty of mounted taxidermied jackalopes for sale there, so they must be pretty plentiful in South Dakota ;-)
