MOUNT RUSHMORE

This was so awesome.  This gave me the same sensation of wonder as when I saw the Grand Canyon, and Chichen Itza, for the first time.

Not one worker died while making this monument.

Hey Matt Bailey worked on Mount Rushmore!

This is the hall of flags.


This is what the finished Mount Rushmore should look like.  It was never completed. 



It was cold.  Winter is on it's way!

This is the view that the Presidential faces are looking at.

This is the man that created Mount Rushmore.  He was 58 when he started this project.  This gave me hope that I can still do something grand before I bite the dust.  He could be on one of those new Mormon ads.  He would say " I'm a bust, the creator of Mount Rushmore, a father of 2 children and I'm a Mormon"

Very cool. Glad you got to see this. Jackie and I were close once but didn't venture. Probably should have.

If the Parks Department ever hired me to finish it, I would put them in dresses because it would be funny. Thus, the Parks Department will never hire me to finish a sculpture.
