TRIP - DAY 12

This morning I woke up and left Sheridan WY to drive to Hill City, SD to go to the Black Hills National Park. Black Hills NP is near Mount Rushmore, Jewel Cave, Wind Cave and the Badlands. 

It was a long drive and I arrived to the park late once again. Along the way I visited Devils Tower. It is a national monument. It was a short detour but so amazing. 
The difference between a national park and national monument is that a national monument is intended to preserve at least one nationally significant resource and a national park contains a variety of resources and encompasses large land or water areas to help provide adequate protection of the resources. 

After my quick stop at Devils Tower, I made it to my destination. 

The campground was nice and had the best bathrooms so far. What makes a great bathroom, you ask? This bathroom is decorated in a lovely peach color and is more like a spa restroom. There are miniature soaps, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, makeup wipes, q-tips, cotton balls, and in the shower there are two large bottles of shampoo and body wash (adhered to the wall) in the restroom. There are bathroom and shower stalls. Each shower stall has a large bench and hooks. The shower curtain was fabric instead of those clear or white plastic shower curtain. It even had decorative shower rings. Plus, and most importantly, it was clean.

It was a long day. 

Until tomorrow...
