August 5 - said good bye to Wayne but not before taking a final stroll through the park. took some cook pics at sunrise. Before leaving today, the cows and calves in the field beside us were going to get rounded up. That was cool to watch as they seperated out the cows and calves so the calves could get some medicine. Today we saw LOTS of folks heading to Sturis motorcycle rally. Our destination is the Badlands Hotel and Campground which is 4 miles outside the east entrace to the Bad Lands National Park. Gas today was a lot of 3.57 and 3.89. Not bad! Had read the reviews about this campground (private) but from what I have seen so far, it's top notch. Full hookup (water, electric, sewer) . will post tomorrow but in Site 10 and great view of the Bad Lands. The badlands themselves are very cool place - they just pop up out of nowhere. Reminds me of Monument Vally. Staying here for 3 nights, so two full days of exploring the area. Looking to do couple of hikes in the mornings next two days. They have couple night programs so will do them next two night. Enjoy the photos.
