Badlands to Wall and back

August 13, 2010
Badlands National Park, South Dakota

We did a nice road trip today, following the "Badlands Scenic Loop" through the northern section of the Park, up to Wall (another "tourist town") and then back via a slightly different route. We brought the pups and our lunch, and saw quite a bit of the rock formations as well as some of the wildlife.

We got home late in the afternoon and did a collaboration dinner. I thawed and peeled some shrimp for grilling and Geri pulled together a potato gratin (sans cream) and a baked vegetable medley that was the bomb. Both her dishes had a crust made with panko, and they had a kick since she used the spicy crumbs she got from Stew Leonard's back in Connecticut. Woo-hoo!
