We are on our way to Salt Lake Cindy and Olive's high school graduation. We have plenty of time so we asked ChatGPT for plans for a 3-day trip - stops, side trips, lodging, etc. The results were great with stops in Rapid City and Casper. We have been through this route many times, but often the way to somewhere else and we did not take in the local sights.
Mitchell
Mitchell is home to the Corn Palace. The Corn Palace is decorated with corn kernels of different colors (see images). It must take a lot of careful work to create giant murals. The Palace is never as large as I expect, but it does contain an arena suitable for athletic events and farm animal judging. Traveling this time of year is great because the tourist season has yet to start,
South Dakota Badlands
We lived in North Dakota and visited the North Dakota Badlands several times. The Badlands (North and South Dakota) are known for the unusual land formation which resulted from layers of deposits that were then eroded away. The Badlands are also home to wildlife. We saw buffalo at a distance and mule deer up close.
