Been There, Done That

I don't want to trivialize our experience at Mount Rushmore; it was a very nice day. It's crowded, sure, but somehow Nancy and I didn't seem to mind on this occasion, as the park and its facilities are well equipped to serve a large number of people. It's one of those stirring and spectacular sights that every resident of the US should see at least once in their life time.

But I won't spend much time documenting our visit on VT; there are countless others who have done so, and it is doubtful that our experiences were much different, or my photos unique. So, here they are, and let it be said that I've been there, done that.

Nancy

Nancy poses in front of the monument; we don't do this all that often.

The Plaza

Behind the visitor's center, and before you enter the viewing area and ampi- theatre is a grand plaza, not a bad place for people-viewing actually.
