More of South Dakota

This is the back view of the cabin we stayed in. It worked out really well for us. 6 adults and 6 kids couldn't have fit more perfectly. We were in the Black Hills and had amazing views. I wish we would have had another day just to spend at the cabin.
The kids had a blast exploring the woods just outside the door.

The adults had a blast eating outside and letting the kids do what they wanted. It was so nice to get away from the city.

Of course we had to visit Mt. Rushmore while we were there. Before the trip we learned about the presidents on the mountain. So my favorite was when C said, "Where is the one with the glasses? There he is!" I was glad to know that even my 3 year old had learned something, even if it was just that Roosevelt had glasses.
This is our whole group. We had the 12 that stayed in the cabin, Big B's brother and family, another brother and a sister then at Mt. Rushmore his other brother, his wife and 7 kids met us. It was a great time. We walked the path around the mountain then went into the muesum. It's amazing the effort that went into Mt. Rushmore. So glad we got to see it.

That looks like so much fun, I still remember our trip there when I was pretty young. It's an impressive place!
