Radically Retired

SD Jackalope

Yesterday, I was reading a fellow blogger’s hilarious reply to my reply to a comment he’d made on one of my recent posts (clear as mud, right?), and a fun memory came back.

I immediately recalled my ride on this mythical creature, while road tripping in 2008.

How many miles are “you” from Wall Drug? It’s 496 for us😉

    We winter in AZ and when we are in the desert we often see Jackrabbits. Every once in a while we tell our guests to look for Jackalopes!

      I was anonymous above. I too fondly remember the Jackalope from Wall Drug.

      We visited Arizona several weeks at a time in the winters before we retired. It was nice and we saw lots of great places, but decided to check out South Texas once we were able to do the entire winter somewhere. It was a perfect fit for us!

    Travel memories and some of the best! Is there a ladder on the other side? If not, how did you get up? :o)

      There must have been a ladder, Lenore, because I’m short and I’d never trust being lifted up there, lol!

    921 miles for us – if we take a ferry. 1103 miles if we don’t. 878 if we were home.

      Thanks for checking that out and posting, Betty! If you’ve never been there, and if you ever go, there’s no missing Wall Drug once you’re on I-90 and headed in that direction. Every few miles, for about 600 miles on that route, you’ll see a billboard that tells you how many miles to Wall Drug, thus my question 😊 Have a fab evening!

    I haven’t seen a Jackalope for ages! Your memory managed to jog a few of mine. 🤗
