Just pictures

These pictures go with the previous post. This is the bison that we saw paw the ground then roll around in the dirt.




The one below is the one that walked just behind the truck. These animals are HUGE. I don't think this picture does it justice. Murtle shivered when he walked by.




This is a picture of the fires burning in Hot Springs about 39 miles from our campground. We can't see the smoke from here, but when we were up in the Black Hills by the tower, we saw it.




This is Mount Rushmore! It is just as spectacular as it looks in the books. Because of the way the sun is, you can't see Roosevelt as well, but he is there. What an interesting place. I took about ten different shots of this all different angles!


This is one of the tunnels that we went through. This bus looks like it is being swallowed by the mountain. You have to see all six pictures that I took to get the gist of this. Pretty amazing. I thought we would be tight going through here, but this bus! The people inside must have ducked and jumped into the middle.

We are having a great time. (I think Brad is just about over his homesickness!)

Murtle is so excited about everything. She is the first one up in the morning, and the first one ready to go.

More later. We are headed to Yellowstone this morning. (Probably will not be there for a few days, no more rush rush to get anywhere.)
