Walking Around Downtown Rapid City, South Dakota





Eric & I stroll around Downtown
Rapid City after dinner at
The Wine Cellar.









Eric & I sampled Beers &
had a nosh at Firehouse
Brewing Company.



A Firefighter Mural























Downtown Rapid City advertises itself as The City of Presidents with statues of US Presidents displayed on street corners.





41st President

















... from two different angles








Martin Van Buren
8th  President









6th  President





















15th  President




























5th President
















designed in 1911.







Abraham Lincoln, 16th President
& a Young Boy
I like to think it's his son Willie





in 1867.

I like this ornate roofline
ornamental finials.



















Main Street Square is Rapid City's
outdoor gathering space hosts
special events, arts & culture.









During the summer a large
splash pad keeps children
& adults cool.

In the winter it is converted
into an Ice Skating Rink.









32nd President




Who's Toy House...





... has a large outdoor Chess Set.










Franklin Pierce
14th President















I'm glad that the facades of
these older buildings
have not been altered
modern exteriors.





7th  President

















A distance shot along Main Street







Calvin Coolidge
30th President
















John F. Kennedy, 35th President
handing a toy airplane to
his son, John Junior.

I find this statue to be 
poignant because both
the President & his son
died too soon.









The Stars & Bars on the
side of a building









31st  President

















Cowboy Boots
Re-Soled Here














21st President

John Adams
