I stopped here at nearly 10pm having given up on my plan to at least get through South Dakota before the end of the day. Two solid days of driving and I'm not even half way home! I made it 641 miles today and ended up here in White Lake which isn't too bad considering that I stopped in Wall Drug https://www.yelp.com/biz/wall-drug-store-wall?hrid=IWgKIJ0C9TomwCRnLLeSyg for a while and the Dignity statue https://www.yelp.com/biz/dignity-of-earth-and-sky-chamberlain?hrid=kFbi7HqwxEtFmTVRKEonnA and now I'm too tired to go on.
I parked at the far end of the rest area, locked the door, put up the shades, climbed into the sleeping bag and I was out until about 6:30 am. Pretty good sleep, actually.
We're out on the prairie here and it gets cold. Very, very cold. That's why we have heaters. And the building where the rest rooms are located is also heated and that's a good thing.
Unfortunately, I missed the "Westbound Tiny Church" that is at the westbound rest area. That would be worth checking out next time.
