South Dakota

Jake and I were able to take a RV trip with some friends to see Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, and the Wind Caves. It was such a fun getaway and as close to camping as I will ever get. Mount Rushmore was spectacular. The Presidents were chosen for the contributions they made to help America become what it is today. The thing that amazed me the most was that 90 percent of the sculpture was done by blasting. To be able to get so detailed with dynamite is just amazing. Just to see it in the daytime is great but at night when they put a spotlight on the monument, you could not help to feel a little patriotic. What a great symbol of America we have and helped me to reflect on what a privilege it is to live here.







What to say about Crazy Horse......I think crazy sums it all up. Just the face of the Indian took 20 years and according to the guide they hope to have the head of the horse done in 30 years. I hope they do complete it because I am sure it will be amazing as well.







This was a great trip and I am excited to go back again.
