It seems I forgot to post the links to my Mount Rushmore pictures yesterday, which is fine since the light was better this morning so I took new ones. Like I said, we were too cheap to pay the $10 to get into their parking lot and visitor’s center, mostly because we have the National Parks annual pass and we were annoyed that Mount Rushmore parking was not included. Plus, we figured the $10 was just for the history lesson about who made Mount Rushmore and why, which is probably accessible online for free.


We got to Cody, Wyoming, which is the last “big” town before Yellowstone. It has an old western theme going on (so did where we stayed yesterday), except it seems almost legitimate here, whereas Keystone, SD was touristy western. I’m looking forward to visiting Yellowstone tomorrow, even though it’s one of the bigger and more famous national parks, so Travis says it’ll be super touristy and annoying. I hope we see bison.
Here’s a panorama from Badlands that I was too lazy to merge yesterday, as well as some prairie dog pictures (I forgot about the prairie dogs). They were watching the buffalo.
P.S. I hate my laptop.
