While in Rapid City....

There's lots to see in do..maybe not IN Rapid City...but certainly all around it.  Our main purpose to be here is to establish residency in the State of South Dakota.  It only took a few minutes to get our drivers license and the same with licensing our truck and trailer.  That left a lot of time for sight seeing.

We made side trips to places like Deadwood - there seemed to be lots of people milling around - but no one in the casinos playing.  We also took a look at Sturgis.  I think it's a good time of year to look around.  There weren't many people there.  Probably the most popular place in Sturgis when we were there was the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum.  It really is pretty cool.  They have an amazing collection of Motorcycles.  Including one like Randy's brother Gary had when he was younger.

One of the other  "touristy" things we decided to do was check out "Bear country USA".  It is a drive through animal park.  It has animals other than bears.  Even though there are signs everywhere we drive here to watch out for Big Horn Sheep - I think they are fakes.  I had to go to the animal park to see any.  We got some great pictures...including some 4-5 week old bear cubs that are having blast playing.
