Sioux Falls and the Banshees

We just got to our cabin right outside of Yellowstone in Wyoming. Today has been a LONG day. We finished our trek through South Dakota and powered through most of Wyoming. There were panic attacks (mostly from me) but also some really, really great moments. But, let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. Let's catch up on South Dakota. 

We'll start with Sioux Falls, self proclaimed "heart of america" and the cultural center of South Dakota. We stayed with Steph's cousin, Jennifer who took us to the city's namesake.


We passed this museum on our way there...










"Did you hear that story about the guy who put his foot in Sioux Falls..."





Then, we strolled through the streets of downtown Sioux Falls, home of the sculpture walk, where a new sculpture is commissioned and added each year. This one is titled "All in the same boat"

It may not be clear here, but New York (#1) and New Haven (#2) are on this best grilled cheese list.

AAF is still touring. STILL.

Steph's cousin had pounds of material on the Black Hills and Mount Rushmore, so we cut the visit short and high-tailed it to the other side of South Dakota.
