Day 3 - being Good in the Badlands

A land of contrasts:  white then black, low then high...driving through the Badlands was like going through prairie only to stumble upon the Grand Canyon.  "I will find peace in the buffalo grass" -  lovely line from a song by our friend Andy Renfree.  We hunted the buffalo and found them.  A very large herd, in fact.
After lunch, we set off on the My. Rushmore Scenic Loop.  From white limestone to the Black Hills. Elevation and lots of trees.  Again, though, spectacular scenery.  Lots more bison.  Actually got to Mt. Rushmore around 7:30 pm and stayed for their show and lighting ceremony.  Very impressive to see the 4 presidents lit up against the night sky.
Now, we're dead tired after all the driving.  Tomorrow will be an easier day.
