Mt. Rushmore and Crazy Horse

We had a reservation at a campground just south of Keystone, SD (Near Mt. Rushmore) but had some difficulty finding it last night… both Google Maps and the truck’s navigation system mapped the same location using the addresses provided on the campground's website, however, our campground did not exist there! In fact, it wasn’t even anywhere near there! We had some fun pulling the trailer through the twisty mountain roads, bridges, and even through a few tunnels that were only wide enough for one car to enter ( a TIGHT squeeze for the trailer!)

In the morning we visited Mt. Rushmore. I have to admit that it was more impressive than I thought it would be. 14 years of blasting away at the mountain and it still never reached its completed state. It makes us wonder if this will be the Stone Henge of the next cilvilization… will they think these 4 men were gods we worshipped? We also visited Crazy Horse nearby. Although still less than half-way complete, this giant three dimensional sculpture was something to see! It’s hard to believe that it is the result of the work of one man, his wife, and 7 children! Will it be completed in our lifetime? It will be intresteing to see...
