Well, we did make it to Keystone, the cute little city where Mount Rushmore is located, but it was really foggy - so foggy you couldn't see 5 feet in front of you. We didn't get to see Mount Rushmore, but we had seen it 10 years ago (Matt saw it last year with Adam) and I doubt if it's changed since then. No biggie, we saved the $10 parking fee to see the "free" presidential heads.
We did however stop and tour the Rushmore Cave which was pretty cool. Here are some pictures of that - lots of stalagtites on the ceiling. I had a little bit of a tough time when we first entered the 1/2 mile walk through the cave as it was narrow. Dad, you would've hated it! I got used to it and was glad that the lights stayed on throughout the tour.
Oh, and we saw some wild turkeys on the side of the road in Keystone, too. Here they are posing for the picture.
If any of you head out here, know that Keystone is very quaint and nice. We bought some fudge as a treat and had lunch in town before heading back to our camper in Rapid City.
Weather is looking good for our drive to Sturgis. We may not make it as far as Billings, but may stay somewhere in Wyoming tomorrow night instead. More to come...

Hey there, Uncle Larry & herd o' dogs & cat!
Yes! We made it back to Salem on Sunday. We haven't had Internet hooked up yet (the guy is coming out tomorrow) so I haven't posted the last blog :( Will be sad to do as it means it's really over, but we're ready to start our next adventure. More to come by end of this week.
Love ya!!! Stay warm and hopefully you have your fire going now, right?
