Nice shots. Looks like it was fun AND educational.
Yes it was a lot of fun and very educational. The 9 year old boy can't wait to get back in school to tell his class about the trip and all he learned about Mt. Rushmore.

Did you take a picture of the old Oregon Trail bridge over the Sweetwater at Independence Rock? An impressive piece of engineering for that time period. I was actually through there one day before you (on the 2nd.) We had an on-site with the BLM to discuss our plans to rape some virgin territory just to the south.

If you like happy endings, and I think we all do, then Tokyo Massage is the place for you. Unintentional rhyming, btw.

I didn't see Independence Rock, but I wanted to. I had to head off to SD to appease the masses who were holding pitchforks and torches while chanting "Mt. Rushmore! Mt. Rushmore!" repeatedly. They were in the back of the van. I wasn't ready to die that day.

I have heard that that bridge is an impressive structure. It's amazing what folks can do when it needs to be done, eh?
