To South Dakota and Back

Sunset at the South Dakota Border, originally uploaded by s4xton.

Took a sponanious road trip with Flickr pal Kendra to take photos of old signs. We kept driving until we ended up in Watertown, South Dakota.

The gas station we stopped at in Watertown was also a café, a truck stop and restaurant that had a bar and casino upstairs. I figured as long as we're at a gas station with a bar and casino we might as well do as Romans do. The bartender pressured us to get a beer but we firmly resisted. I explained how far we had to drive back home but that didn't seem to matter much. She then insisted she give us sodas instead and we agreed. Put in $20 into a Duces Wild machine and after about ten minutes of playing ended up at $36. Cashed out and gave her a tip for the Cokes.

About 450 miles of driving in total. A great way to spend a Saturday.
