Any of you who have ever crossed S.D. on I- 90 probably remember seeing about 200 miles of billboards about the Pioneer Antique Auto museum and Wall Drug. The Pioneer Museum has not only cars but also tractors, motorcycles, all types of farm plows, tools and hundreds of other things. It would take several days to see everything but since it was cold and raining we only spent about 3 hrs. One of the highlights was finally seeing a Whippit. On many occasions I ( Eldor ) have heard my Dad talking about the car he had when he and Mom got married, a Whippit, and we have stopped at MANY antique auto museums all across the country and this is the first one we have found.
Anyone who enjoys unrestored antiques of all kinds should stop there when in that part of the country.
Wall Drug in Wall, S.D.
In a town of maybe 2000 people has this drug store that covers at least a good sized city block and their claim to fame is all you can drink coffee for a nickel a cup on the honor system. They carry as much variety as Walmart except groceries and at 2:00 pm Wed. the store was so full of people from all over the U.S. you couldn't stir them with a stick. Dorothy had a cheeseburger and I had a Buffalo burger. The buffalo burger was very good but I couldn't tell the difference between it and hamburger. After fighting the crowd for about 30 minutes we left and found a campground to spend the night.
