• In my travels I rarely stop at the popular tourist attractions, but there's always those places that have been pounded into your head as icons since childhood. #MountRushmore is one such place.
    So, while passing by we decided to stop and get some original content to share and experience it ourselves.

    After pulling up to the gates and seeing that the place was not only packed, but that it costs $25 for such a short experience, we decided it wasn't worth our time. As a taxpayer and as an #American #Citizen I don't believe I should pay these extra fees to enjoy my own country.

    We turned around and decided to go find a place to grab some shots outside of the #Park. Heading West on #HWY244 we found a viewing area, hung out there with the dogs for longer than we probably would have in the Park itself. It turns out that this spot shows up on the map as the #MountRushmoreProfileView.

    While there are better areas further away to view it, we didn't want to waste too much time looking for one. We were at the end of a 10 day #trip through 9 #States and just wanted to get home.

  • The #BadlandsNationalPark is a beautifully #scenic place and a few years a ago we found a #freeboondocking site right on the rim. The #campsite is technically in the #BuffaloNationalGrassland, but the view in to the #badlands is amazing. Each time we visited, once in early Spring and the other in early Fall the Northern weather proved to be unpredictable.

    Both times we had a #LonghornSheep rambling through the site trying to meet everyone, but no one trusted him. This guy was standing right outside of our RV just after a hailstorm.????
