POWDER HOUSE RESTAURANT
The last evening we were there, we went with Al and Sue to the Powder House Restaurant in Keystone for prime rib. The whole meal was delicious!
RAPID CITY GRAFFITI
They were having trouble with graffiti in downtown Rapid City, so they gave the so called artists free reign in one block of an alley. It's pretty ugly, but interesting.
RAPID CITY, SD PRESIDENTS
In downtown Rapid City, they have statues of our presidents on their corners. Here are a few examples-President Carter.
President Reagan.
President Washington.
President Jefferson.
You can even read the Declaration of Independence that he's holding.
They have a nice visitors center with information about the presidents.

CUSTER BUFFALO
The little town of Custer tries to get everybody in the mood of the area by putting buffalos on their corners downtown. Here are a couple.
They even have one full of motorcycles-getting ready for Sturgis.
DINER IN HILL CITY
I probably wouldn't suggest you eat at this diner, but thought the inside was neat. The girls wore poodle skirts.
Marilyn was cute.
Notice the pictures light up.
I did see pizza that looked good, but my hamburger had no flavor. There were quite a few people in there, somaybe mine was a fluke.

SPEARFISH CANYON
We missed Spearfish Canyon the other day because of the fog, so we tried it again today. There were daisies along the road for miles.
The rock formations along this canyon were neat also.
The first of three water falls was a little difficult to find and part of the path wasfull of tree roots so you had to be careful. Here Don's on the way to the path.
It was worth it to see Spearfish Falls.
We also got to see this along the way.
The Roughlock Falls was easier to get to.
The Bridal Veil Falls was right along the road.
This was another pretty area!

MORE NEEDLES HIGHWAY
It's very hard to choose from the many, many pictures I took of the rock formations in this area,
but here are a few.
Another tunnel-can we make it through?
Along the way were these pretty flowers.
At the end of the highway, you find Sylvan Lake.
It's a beautiful area!
