- Wall Drug - a silly tourist trap
- Storybook Island - Katie was on the edge of being too old to enjoy this park, but we are glad she had the opportunity to go
- Crazy Horse Monument - the builders still have a long way to go, but what they have looked nice, and we enjoyed the bus ride to get close to the mountain
- Mt. Rushmore - this was my highest visit priority on this trip and we stayed there from late afternoon until the mountain lighting ceremony that night (they didn't do fireworks due to the forest fire hazard). The overall park location was smaller than what Karen and thought it would be, but the weather cooperated.
One sight I could not capture on film: leaving Mt. Rushmore and descending out of the Black Hills into Rapid City at right and watching a distant big thunderstorm lighting up the sky and seeing lots of fireworks displays going off around the city.
