Rapid City

This was our next stop on our way west. Our friends Herb and Ginger, the spices, are staying in Hill City about a half hour away. They came to visit and see the changes to our coach. We had a very nice visit and then went to lunch at the Firehouse Brewing Company. After a find lunch went Prairie Edge which is as much a museum as it is a store. We visited a few more shops and visited with the Presidents that were on the corners we passed. I fist bumped a couple and gave a high 5 to Jimmy Carter. You do know that Rapid City is the city of Presidents, don't you?

We then took a walk down Art Alley and visited Call of the Wild and the Visitors Center Neither of which Herb and Ginger had been to. Art Alley seemed a little depressed, more graffiti than art.

The next day we got hair cuts and did some shopping. Once back at Americas Mailbox, AMB, we picked up our mail. Even though there was quite a bit of mail it did seem like we were missing something. But I didn't go back an argue with them.

After we took care of our mail we went to Hill City to visit with Herb and Ginger before going to dinner at Alpine Inn. We went to town early because we knew that there would be a line. The girls did a little shopping and Herb and I went to see if we could get our name on a list. Well there is no list. When the dining room opens form a line and go in. Herb and I decided to have a Dunkelweizen. Good Beer. When the girls finished shopping they joined us in the bar which by now was full and it was still 15 minutes until the dining room opened. Great dinner, great desert, great friends.
