    At minute marker 1:56 there about I saw the beginnings of a major accident. A truck pulling a heavy load slammed on his brakes and headed for the ditch to avoid taking out the car in front of him.

    Thank you so much for this it really brings back memories. I first moved for the US and Ft Pierre in '89. You drove past my old house and old 2nd grade school. The road where I got jumped by 3rd graders lol. We used to run wild all around the old downtown there, it was historic then. Would jump on the trains as they slowly ran though town and got in all kinds of trouble. Just had to be home when the street lights came on. Only lived there a couple years but I got a good solid grounding and taste of what America was all about.

    See South Dakota...and leave the driving to Russ! Really enjoyed the tour of the capitol building. (If you're ever in the Baton Rouge area, be sure to check out the old state capitol there) The auto museum is pretty cool as well--I like the sign at the front counter "Hi! You're among Friends", couldn't ask for a nicer welcome. I''m always surprised to find places like that with huge collections in small towns that I'd otherwise pass by without a clue. Thankfully I can find out about them by watching videos like yours. Happy trails!

Amazing tour of the Courthouse, Museums, Old Homesteads & towns, Enjoyed the drive through the badlands, & seeing all its beautiful colors.

    1:43:08 From my Minuteman days in the 80s, there were 150 missiles at Ellsworth AFB near Rapid City before they were deactivated.
    Other bases were at Minot AFB in ND (150 missiles, still active)
    Grand Forks AFB near the ND/MN state line (150 missiles deactivated)
    Malmstrom AFB in Montana (100 missiles, still active)
    F. E. Warren AFB near Cheyenne, WY (150 missiles, still active)
    and Whiteman AFB in central Missouri (150 missiles, deactivated).
    One of each launch facilities controlled a "flight" of 10 missile silos.

At the end of thirty days he would come back up, and he and his buddies would travel Europe. He went to all the countries in Europe. He loved it.

It was great to live on base just down the street from Wahsington Dr. where I lived when I was 5 years old! Spent most of my childhood in South Dakota. EAFB, Rapid City, Box Elder, Custer, and Sioux Falls too. Miss being a Sodakian!

    Casey Tibbs (the rodeo museum at 30:27) inspired a one-season TV show in the 1960s: "Stoney Burke" starring Jack Lord as a rodeo competitor seeking the "Golden Buckle" award. Tibbs produced the rodeo sequences (also pulled some stunt double duty) and served as technical advisor for a number of episodes.
