The Loop Road

2016 Out West, National Parks, North Dakota, Road Trip, States, Theodore Roosevelt NP-North Dakota

Park Introductory

Our goal today has been to savor the south unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park. After a bit of excitement with bison cutting through a neighboring campsite we headed out to drive the loop road. Prairie dogs, bison,


incredible views of the badlands. We took photographs but also spent time just looking and a little bit of hiking. Back at the visitors center we listened to the ranger talk and did the “tour” of the Maltese Cross Cabin, TR’s first home in the Dakota Territory. We’re saving the drive to Elkhorn Ranch and the Petrified Forest for next time because this is a special place and we want to return.

Burgh House Hampstead

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.

Wicked The Musical

Wicked The Musical

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
