Wall's offerings limited, but it is a gateway to spectacular sights
Nov 5, 2021 3:42 PM - I'm taking my family to Wall, S. D., to visit some friends who recently moved there, and we've decided to make it next summer's vacation.

I also heard something about a drugstore that's supposed to be quite famous. Watching for your answer, and thank you.

Can you recommend a gathering spot that is midway between Maryland and Illinois for driving? Michigan was thought of but we would welcome your suggestions. All kids are school age, and the grandparents are very active. Your thoughts? It may be helpful to know that past vacations we've enjoyed together were rental homes at Wild Dunes, S.C.
