Our first night we stayed in Kadoka, South Dakota. We wanted to be able to begin our drive through the Badlands National Park in the morning so the light would be nice and Kadoka was the closest town. This is the 1st of only 2 hotels we are staying in, the other being in Las Vegas and because we are on a budget, we went with the cheapest. Despite the Bates Motel vibe, it was quite nice and had a very friendly old man working the front counter. But big thanks to all our friends and soon-to-be friends who are hosting us on this adventure, we couldn’t do it without your hospitality!
