This morning we woke up to a light rain, but decided to go to Mt. Rushmore anyway, after all, that's why we came here! We got lucky and dodged the rain all day, but it was very cool and we were glad we had jackets. Mt. Rushmore is soooooo impressive! We took the hike which includes a zillion stairs, thank you Aleve! Then we drove by Crazy Horse then took the scenic loop through Custer State Park, viewing bison, pronghorns, prairie dogs, burros, mule deer and turkey. Beautiful! I commented on how much it looks like the Sierra! Tomorrow we're off to the Reptile Farm (I may wait in the car), then Bear Country. Everything is going well, no glitches in our travel (knock on wood).
Still waiting to see news on brother John...
XOXX Joan
