Here's a short list:
Wall Drug Store (just to say you've been there)
Custer State Park, for great wildlife
The Needles Highway if you tow a small vehicle
Wind Cave
Crazy Horse Memorial
Devils Tower if you can go a bit farther west

Several years ago, we stayed at the KOA, Mt. Rushmore. Each evening, they would
have a (Courtesy) Bus that took anyone interested to the evening program at Mt.
Rushmore one night, and Crazy Horse Mountain the next night. They left and
returned to the KOA, which made it very convient. This KOA is Big, around 500
spaces.

As the Sturgis motorcycle rally is going on through this weekend it may be a
good idea to call ahead and make sure there are openings where you are looking
to camp. With so many people in the area things are usually pretty full all
around the Black Hills. I've heard of campgrounds taking reservations up to a
year in advance for the first week of August.

Hi Ed   Good to hear from you.  We will be on the road a few more weeks. We wanted to see a National roller skating event in Peoria, IL this week & then take a road trip west. On the way out my oil temp ran about 215 & when it did get to 220 one time I turned my fan over ride off & it came back down but I wasn't in any hills yet. I have never Â
did anything with my oil cooler. I did change the hoses to it two years ago. I don't know that it needs any maintenance.
   I think it is too hot in TX right now so I don't think we will make it down this summer. We have had a cool summer this year in PA. Up to this last week we had out house air one time this summer.Â
