The Journey Museum and Gardens - Video Learning - WizScience.com
The Journey Museum and Gardens is a museum in Rapid City, South Dakota, USA with 7 acre of gardens. It is set up as a journey through the history of the Black Hills, starting with the Native American creation stories, moving into the 2.5 billion years of history in the rock record with the geology exhibit, paleontology, archaeology, Native American inhabitants, and concluding with the pioneers that traveled west.
The Geology Gallery contains a wall that shows a 2.5 billion year rock record of the Black Hills area. The Museum of Geology at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology provides artifacts and information for patrons to better understand the timeline. Along with the geology section is the paleontology section with fossils, much of which is on loan from the Black Hills Institute of Geological Research in Hill City, South Dakota. A model of an on-site dig with a tent provides patrons with a sense of field work, sometimes with a retired paleontologist working in it who can answer questions. A model of a T-Rex and a Triceratops accompanied by a roaring sound track are also included in the exhibit.
After the Geology and Paleontology exhibits is the Archaeology Gallery. This gallery is split into five sections, according to time period. It is divided into five sections listed in the chart below. The Archaeology Gallery contains artifacts and information from The South Dakota Archaeological Research Center.
The Sioux Indian Museum, the next gallery after Archaeology, contains 5,500 pieces regulated by the United States Department of the Interior's Indian Arts and Crafts Board. Most of the collection is from the collection of a Native American arts collector who owned a trading post on the Rosebud Indian Reservation. This part of the collection was collected from the 1890s to the 1930s. The Sioux Indian Museum contains beaded items, ceremonial items, traditional Native American clothing, an exhibit of items made from animals, kids items , instruments, Native American saddles, and tipis. There is also a holographic Native American elder who tells three stories.

Rapid City South Dakota billboards come down
This nonconforming structure, with two billboards on each side, was on a hill on the road to Mount Rushmore National Monument inside the Rapid City limits. It took away from the scenic beauty of the beautiful Black Hills.
The billboard was purchased by a local development company, Dream Designs, Inc. in Rapid City, SD, so that they could take it down and redevelop the property with something more sightly!
