In April 2007 we had sold our home in Michigan and moved into our new fifth wheel trailer to start our adventure of full timing and exploring in our RV. We started our blog so family and friends can track us and see what we are up to. You can double clink any picture to enlarge it.

Mt Rushmore & Crazy Horse





















Today we went with Deb & Gary Pearce to Mt Rushmore and Crazy Horse after a good German lunch in Hill City. Both have changed a lot since we were there 25+ years ago with Judy's mom and Jody & Randy. We walked up and down on a long path in front of the 4 presidents. They haven't changed but everything else has. The walk took us to various structures used when making the sculptures. After this we visited Crazy Horse who now has a face. I was more impressed with the buildings and grounds around Crazy Horse than I was at Rushmore. We watched some Indian dancing & Had a tail gate supper as we awaited darkness and the laser show on Crazy Horse. This was impressive and lasted 20 minutes depicting Native American history to the present. The Ziolkowski family has been working on Crazy Horse for 60 years & I doubt it will be finished when Devyn is my age. Their goals include an Indian cultural Center and University.
