I also happened to see the tail-end of a TV show last night with an aerial shot of Rushmore. I have never seen Rushmore and have also always wanted to see the Black Hills and the Badlands. Let's do a FReeper pilgrimage; wouldn't that be great?!
"Badlands"
That would be so much fun! I am so envious of my son's trip up to Eastern Montana and the Dakotas because it is part of the country I haven't visited, and the reports coming back are that they are having a blast on this trip. (On Warm Fuzzy Wednesday I am going to post some photos of some fuzzy Buffalo they encountered up close near Yellowstone.)
Pinging my traveling friend, Amy. Wouldn't a trip to Mt. Rushmore be fun? Have you ever been there?
