The morning brought another cave tour at Wind Cave NP - we have toured the longest three cames in the US as well as the largest cave chamber in the world! Wind Cave is unique in that it contains box formations which have not been found in other caves. There was a bat flying around in the staircase when we began the Natural Entrance tour. Leaving Wind Cave, we saw a very large herd of bison and a few prairie dogs.
The Black Hills area is very pretty with its rocky outcroppings and Pondarosa pines.
The afternoon brought Mt. Rushmore NM and my long-time friend Tanya! We have "known" each other for probably 16-18 years through an old online newsgroup called Oz (it was for scrapbookers), and we had met IRL once before in 2002 in Philly - before Ken and I knew we would be moving to the Philly area! It was fun to catch up with her again, here in her home area.
Ken is working on adding a new page to the blog with some photos, so be sure to check the tabs near the top of the blog for a new photo page.
