We're not planning to spend that much time on this trip in South Dakota.
We're driving in from New Ulm via Walnut Grove so we'll get there pretty late.
We thought 1 day to do the Laura Wilder sites & then travel north into North Dakota as far as Fargo before going back into Minnesota to look at the Mississippi headwaters & that region.
We have been to the other side of the state before & visited The Badlands, Rapid City, Rushmore etc but our vacation thsi time is concentrated on doing MN, IA, WI, ND, SD & possibly a part of MI.
It's hard trying to cram everything into a 2 week vacation when you don't know the region that well.
