First Three Days

Well we are done with our first three days of driving and have just finished eating a delicious dinner of franks and beans in The Badlands South Dakota. Up to this point the only interesting things that have happened are the facts that it cost $18 in tolls just to get through NY another $12 for Ohio and $9.50 on top of that to get through Illinois. Other than that the driving has been pretty straight and pretty flat. When Alex and I got to the Badlands today we were relatively unimpressed at first, until we drove further into the park and were utterly speechless by the sheer beauty of the land that just seemed to drop rapidly in front of us just to rise up again in sharp peaks in another 50feet or so. The sights are pretty much endless at this point. Tomorrow we head to Mt. Rushmore and the Yellowstone. Im running out of battery right now but will post pictures later.
