Black Hills, SD: Another pretty day today, so we decided to go to Mt. Rushmore. Pretty impressive—especially Borglum, the guy who designed and created it. He started it when he was 60. We walked the trail on the bottom of the carving. Lots of steps, but some great views of the sculpture. After walking around we hit the gift shop and the café for some drinks and then headed back to our campground. Stopped at Horse Thief National Forest campground on Horse Thief Lake. Pretty area, but not too many sites for RVs. The Black Hills are beautiful and rugged. On the way back we saw a mountain goat and her kid. Drove into Hill City and sat in the Laundromat and got on the Super 8 wi-fi. Think we’ll go back to the Mangy Moose for dinner tonight.
