Although we made one more stop (at Indiana Dunes National Seashore - which was a bust and not worth writing about), our last fantastic memory stop was in DeSmet, SD. We had planned to spend time at both the living history park set on the old Ingalls homestead, and in town. However, the kids enjoyed the living history park so much that we wound up spending all of our time there. Even though the drive to DeSmet is long, and there is little to see on the way, it is a not to be missed stop for Little House fans. The owners are friendly and helpful, the history program is active and engaging, and the campground was clean and peaceful. A+ in our travel book. We'll be back. It was a fantastic end to our trip.
