On Sunday, we visited the South Dakota Badlands. They are AMAZING. One of the most beautiful and awesome places that I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. We took over 200 photos. As good as they turned out, they still cannot do this place justice.
We enjoyed walking some of the easy/moderate trails. Adrianna helped us keep a look out for rattlesnakes and pretty rocks. We found lots of pretty rocks but, thankfully, no rattlesnakes.
Greg found a large crack in the landscape and decided to take some silly pics climbing out.
Adrianna had to crawl into the crack for her picture after seeing her Daddy do it. You can see her gesturing to me to take her picture from another angle.
Beautiful formations as far as the eye can see.
Adrianna very much enjoyed playing in the dirt. She kept a running dialogue about how she was “doing her homework” and didn’t want to leave. She talked about this “homework” a lot afterward, concerned that others would ruin it and insisting that we return the following day so she could “finish her homework.”
Enjoying the ride to the next vista overlook
After about 5 hours in the park, we were exhausted. It didn’t take long for Adrianna to fall asleep.
