There are lots and lots of quilt shops in the area too, several in Rapid City and there's a really nice place in Spearfish too. Have fun, we did!
    Now I have to go back! hubby didn't let me stop

    I've been there. It is definitely worth the trip, IMHO. The history of the place is great, and the area is interesting. We went to the evening show this last visit, and enjoyed it. If you camp, try Custer State Park, near Mt. Rushmore. My girls, who generally are not fond of camping, enjoyed camping there.

    Yup - really busy, though.........folding and measuring all the batiks I brought back from Bali!
    Mt. Rushmore and the surrounding area IS very beautiful, though - I don't think I'm biased :) .
