We had a rockin' good day! Whereas we are tired of being cooped up in the car, we had an excellent pit stop at the Mount Rushmore and Crazy Horse Monuments.
As you can see, Crazy Horse isn't close to completion. They started this monument back in the 40's and so far only his face is complete. It was a bit disappointing because we thought more would have been constructed, but we are glad we stopped to see it.
We really liked Mount Rushmore. We were amazed as to how close we could get to the monument. I was able to get some great, "up the nose shots!" Tee, hee! :)
We had another long day of driving. We drove across all of Wyoming and South Dakota today. 700 miles - good gracious! We are hopeful that we'll get home by tomorrow night. We estimate that with breaks we can be home within 15 hours. It will be nice to see some furry little creatures greet us at our front door. I'm just hoping they didn't forget me since I'll have been gone for 2 weeks! :)
