Mt Rushmore

Well we had a quick family vacation this past weekend, and took a trip to South Dakota to see Mt Rushmore and the black hills. It was a lot of fun. We enjoyed camping and visiting Kelsey's Parents who met us there. One of our best finds was Broken Boot Mine. We went on a tour of the old gold mine, and saw first hand who crazy those old miners were. The kids really enjoyed it and then we had them pan for gold (which they got to keep). We then took a detour to Sturgis, making our way to Rapid City where we went to Bear Country. This was Jaylens favorite part. We got to see the Bears roaming around, as well as other wildlife, with the best part being "Babyland." Babyland was were they had all of the baby animals. We saw the bear cubs playing around and they were so cute. The next day we went to Mt Rushmore and enjoyed the new updated they have done. It was really nice. We saw a movie on the making of Mt Rushmore (2x) and went on the "Presidential Trail" which goes around the foot of Mt Rushmore. All in all we had a great trip
