July 4 to Mandan (& Bismark) ND

South of Wolf Point, MT

We did not drive into Theodore Roosevelt NP.  We will save that for another trip.  These pictures were taken along the interstate and at a rest area/scenic overlook into the park.

Drove on to Bismarck, SD.  Enjoyed the 4th of July celebration on the grounds of the state capitol building.  The Bismarck Symphony played before and during the fireworks.  Then we backtracked a few miles to our campground for the night in Mandan, SD.  We discovered that fireworks are legal in SD, and just about on every street corner or parking lot people were setting them off.  A lot of noise, a lot of smoke, and a lot of fireworks!  We could still hear some of the explosions at 2AM.
