The journey from Louisville to South Dakota was a 3 day adventure with many stops along the way...
The journey from Louisville, KY to Devils Tower, WY (stayed in Rapid Falls, SD though) is about 19 hours, but we detoured through Minneapolis in order to go to the Mall of America, made it over 20 hours. It was a 3 day road trip, we actually slept in the car one night, I do believe it was in Mall of America's parking lot, since we got there at like 3am, made sense at the time.
No, this wasn't a college adventure, not even a high school one, this was a journey I took with my mom, brother, grandmother, and grandfather, when I was 6 years old, well, I turned 7 while I was there.. we were visiting my aunt and uncle in Rapid Falls.. that trip allowed me to.. see the Mall of America.. actually know WTF Wall Drug is.. visit the Badlands.. see the Devil's Tower.. see Mt. Rushmore.. see prarie dogs/buffalo.. and also develop my fear of puking, but that's a long story. In short, I loved this road trip even though I can hardly remember most of it.. it was a lot of fun.
I miss the times where I could take a whole 2 weeks out of the summer to vacation.
