The Rest of the Story, Part III

I'm kind of new at this blogging thing, so please forgive the multitude of short posts, but I can't seem to save or post longer entries. I'm sure Sara will chew me out  enlighten me later, but, as she is fast asleep right now, I'd rather face the music tomorrow than wake her up right now. Thus, the saga continues.

June 27: We return to Mount Rushmore so Liam and Gray can earn their Mount Rushmore Junior Ranger badges. I can't say enough about what a cool thing the National Park Service has done with its Junior Ranger program. It helps kids focus on the signifigance of the parks and monuments and enriches their experience immeasurably. From Mt. Rushmore, we head to Belle Fourche, South Dakota - the geographic center of the United States, then we sneak into Montana and arrive at Devil's Tower at dusk. The light was simply amazing, and I snapped some cool images like the one below. We spent the night at the Devil's Tower KOA but skipped the nightly screening of Close Encounters. Riding around in an un-air-conditioned RV takes a lot out of you, and you tend to crash early.

I'm afraid that's all for tonight. Will post again soon until I'm caught up ...
