We looked up Washington's Nose

We finally made it to Mount Rushmore! We were a little worried when we first arrived because there was ALOT of fog and the Presidents had vanished. We decided we were going to try and wait out the fog and walk along the Presidents' Trail. Patience paid off and by the time we were at the bottom of the mountain the fog disappeared and we had a straight shot up good old George's nose! Mount Rushmore is really amazing. It is crazy to walk around and see how big those faces really are. Sarah liked Teddy's glasses the best and we all agreed that Jefferson's nose was HUGE! One thing we didn't realize was how detailed the carvings would be. Lincoln's eyes were crazy, they were so detailed it was like looking at a picture.....not a carving on the side of a mountain.

While walking on the trail we decided to do a little detouring, photo shoot, and "friendly" stalking. There were trails marked by railings on either side and when no one was looking we hopped over and took some pictures on a massive boulder. Kayla decided to reenact the Little Mermaid by posing on the tip of the boulder. If there had been water it would have been a pretty good likeness...minus the cowboy boots and sweats that is! Soon we were arguing over who could be which Disney Princess. The final result is:

Kayla= Arielle

Sarah= Belle

Allie= Pulan (A Pocahontas and Mulan mixbreed)

While taking a million pictures we decided to creep on this cute guy (the only one seen so far on the trip.) Soon Kayla just asked him to take a pic of all three of us and then took a pic of his back when he wasn't looking.

Now we are sitting in a little Pizza Joint in Keystone, SD eating ice cream! We will be making the 17hr drive to Seattle tonight and then who knows!

Laura Coyne.... ready or not, here we come!!!!
