South Dakota: A Very Cool Ride!










Should one ever make it to the northern plains states of the U.S., do yourself a favor and go check out South Dakota. Much more than merely farmland, South Dakota has some really cool sites that can not be seen anywhere else. Should you be able, be sure to check out the very cool and unique sites of Bad Lands National Park, Mount Rushmore, the Black Hills, and Deadwood as well – to name a few. What’s more, the locals seem genuine and warm. Oh yea…, and if you should happen to see Wild Bill or Calamity Jane, be sure to tell them I said hello, will ya’? Either way, South Dakota was a very fun ride for me as I’m sure it will be for you also! I can nearly guarantee that you will enjoy the sights!!

Check it Out: Wyoming!






Another great ride/drive in the U.S. is driving through the State of Wyoming. The highways appear in very good condition and the scenery is spectacular. Jackson seems as a really fun place to spend some time – and this is probably one of the better locations in which to stay and then to take the relatively short ride to enjoy Yellowstone National Park and Grand Teton National Park. Also, in addition to taking in the scenic views throughout the state, if you get a chance, stop in one of the Wyoming towns and try to catch a high school/local rodeo. Wyoming is a fun, peaceful, and memorable ride, no doubt.
