Continued fun in The Black Hills

Wow, what a busy couple of days. As if Crazy Horse and that fantastic lightening storm wasn't enough for one trip. :)

Sunday was out Mount Rushmore day. We spent the morning sleeping in late. It had been hard to sleep Saturday night. Much to excited with the ongoing lightening storm to sleep well. Sunday afternoon we headed over to Mount Rushmore. I give great credit to the folks at the National Park Service and their contractors for putting together a very efficient facility to welcome many thousands of guests for the evening program. Easy in and easy out. Only time I felt like I was surrounded by 8500 of my fellow guests was when I was seated in their monster amphitheater. We arrived early enough for the Presidential Walk. It's a nice path that takes you as close as possible to the figures in the mountain. Then back in time to watch the very patriotic presentation at the amphitheater. A great way to spend the evening.

On the way out, we pulled over at a point in the road where you can see George Washington's profile. Looked pretty great as it was still lit up from the evening program.

Too much to see in the Black Hills :)
