Mt Rushmore and Custer State Park


View of the Buffalo in Custer State Park, from the safety of the car.

Another picture. In the area we were in there were several hundred buffalo on both sides of the dirt road we were on. One big bull was chasing a heffer, he was bellowing and chasing all the other bulls away causing the other animals to run all over the place. Our car was in the middle of all the action.

Denise standing below the Presidents on Mt. Rushmore. We were there for the evening ceremony.

The entry way into the monument. This area has all the state flags with a plaque showing the date they entered the union.

Carhenge, Alliance,NE





These are pictures of Nebraska's answer to England's "Stonehenge". I'm pretty sure Nebraska's answer does not have the mythical quality or ancient Celtic symbolism that it's English cousin does. Much less naked men and women dancing around it during the summer solstice.

Rapid City, SD


This is our home for the next year. Picture taken at Rushmore Shadows Resort in the Black Hills of South Dakota.
