Mount Rushmore

Sunday we also went to check out Mt. Rushmore.



We caught our first glimpse of the faces as we were driving up Iron Mountain Road-totally took us by surprise.






We watched a video on the making of it about 6 months ago, so we knew a little of the background before going there. Since it was a million degrees outside, we decided to go on a hike involving over 420 steps.




Dave got a little hot and dunked his head in the water fountain.








We are getting really good at taking our own family portraits, but we did ask a teenage girl to take one for us. Good picture of us, but no Rushmore!






We still ended up taking our own picture, using bleachers and one of Dave's diapers to prop up the camera.




Pretty good diaper photography huh?
