South Dakota : Mount Rushmore







Mount Rushmore is a once in a lifetime opportunity- meaning I think only need to see it once.

As Skyler so lovingly said "it's like disneyland with no rides".

Although it was an interesting adventure, I didn't know about the controversy associated with it {they don't teach you about that in elementary school} and I walked away from it not quite knowing how I felt about the monument or the artist.

I think mostly I felt bad for Roosevelt, he got the short end of the stick on placement. Oh and poor Lincoln will never have an ear.

Haha, poor Lincoln is right!

Regardless, you got some great shots of Mount Rushmore!
