We loved Mt. Rushmore! It is such beautiful country over there. There were a lot of wildlife around us and everything was green and beautiful! Jaden was dying to climb up the faces and find the city of treasure just like in the movie 'National Treasure 2'! I didn't have the heart to tell him it didn't exist.....
Above is a picture of the traveling gang. From left to right: Randall, Trisha, Hannah, Lindsey, Dad Brown, Lisa, Jaden, Matt, Maddie, Mom Brown, Kimmie and Deb. We are standing in front of Lake Pactola....somewhere in South Dakota. It is the prettiest lake I've ever seen with lush green foliage everywhere! Obviously my camera was on self-timer and I haven't cropped the pic yet....that's why we are crooked.
On the way home, we stopped in Wyoming to see Independence Rock and Martin's Cove. Unfortunately we didn't have time to hike up to the Cove but we did get to tour the visitor's center where the kids got to try their hand and pulling handcarts. It was a very spiritual place and there was a lot to read about what many pioneers went through to try and make it to the Salt Lake Valley. Thanks ancestors!!!

Cool Deb! I am glad you have fun!
What fun! I wondered why you guys were heading up there! Glad you got to see all that great stuff. We miss you. Take the next road trip this way. Our lake is beautiful, too! (With a lot less green "foliage"... :)
South Dakota is a fun place. My hubby and I drove through there on our way from Pennsylvania to Utah. Loved Sturgis and Mt Rushmore!!! Missed out on Flinstoneland though!!!
