On our way back to Minnesota, we stopped at the famous Wall Drug. I’m sure you’ve heard of Wall Drug; it’s the Free Ice Water store! I didn’t really know what Wall Drug was all about until I read the story behind how it came to be, and how it began giving away free ice water. It’s a pretty great story; definitely worth the read.
I also had no clue how huge the store is! It’s actually about 30 stores, all connected by hallways and corridors. It is like being in an old western town, which is entirely the idea. Again, we were there in the off season, so some of the attractions weren’t available. But seriously, what an amazing place.
