Black Hills

After our stop at the Badlands, we visited Mount Rushmore National Memorial and the Black Hills.



Black Hills, South Dakota, July 1966. Why did my Parents think this was a good idea? Mules spit.

It was your vacation stories that inspired me to take my own family on several road trips over the years. We went to the Badlands, Mt Rushmore, Yellowstone, Grand Canyon, Yosemite and most of the other National Parks between Chicago and the Pacific Ocean! They were wonderful experiences... Thank you!

Wonderful! Have you been to my favorite, Glacier?

that's the last national park on our list... Saved the best for last!
