Across South Dakota
Along I-90

They insist this statue looming over the Missouri River at a Lewis and Clark Museum is not Sacajawea, but a representation of all Lakota and Dakota people. (I'm sure we're not the only ones who made that mistake.) The museum also has a good replica of the boat used by the Corps of Discovery Expedition, one you can climb inside and feel the size of.
We also stopped in at the Laura Ingalls Wilder homestead in DeSmet, the location of the later books in the Little House series, before crossing Minnesota and into Wisconsin for a long, summer stay.
