Day 4

Another scenic day today. We were amazed by Mount Rushmore in the morning, walked through a limestone cave, drove through the black hills, made it to the Devil's Tower, and finally arrived in Worland, Wyoming for the night. I managed to hit a skatepark in Buffalo WY too. It was a little hard to ride, with pretty extreme drop-ins and some high walls, but it was fun. I would probably have enjoyed it more if I hadn't eaten so much ice cream beforehand...

Started out in Keystone, SD (tourist trap)...but right next to Mt. Rushmore so that was worth seeing. Today as Phelan said was pretty full. We were trying to decide which was more impressive manmade wonders, or natural wonders...both are impressive. What do you think? We are headed to Yellowstone tomorrow. Here is the animal tally so far...15 or so Antelope, one mountain goat, town of prairie dogs, and 6 or so deer, and of course various other small rodents that don't need to be named. Not sure if we will be able to post from Yellowstone but we will try. After that onto the Tetons.
