Travel the USA

After the country re-opened after Covid-19, we are
"On the Road Again."
Please enjoy the 'armchair travels' and feel free to make comments.

In September of 2019, we made the 'epic' trip to the east coast for the first birthday of our grandson Evan.
Since Evan's birthday is in September, we decided to join a 29 day RV Caravan for the New England fall color. The tour starts in Maine and ends in Niagara Falls. All told, we did about 12,000 miles with the new truck and trailer.

Mount Rushmore and Crazy Horse

A very impressive carving on a mountain!


This is the Sculptor's Studio with the working models
The scale is 1" to 12" on the mountain
After dynamite removes much of the granite, the workers 
have scaffolding hanging off the edges to work the details.  
Amazing processes to complete the sculptures.





Crazy Horse Memorial
If it ever gets finished it would be taller than the Washington Memorial and the Great Pyramid.
A tribute to Crazy Horse, one of the great Indian leaders that fought against the injustices of the 
US Government


 It is amazing to see how these mountain sculptures are created.






This 18 year old dancer is just heading off to college in Denver.

The Lakota family and the traditional dances and costumes.
