Nicholas & Ana Arriving


Well, the kids finally arrived, tired but safe, it sure is great to have them here. We started the day off early - 8AM!!! They impressed me by being ready when we told them the time we wanted to leave!!! Our first stop was in Keystone for a helicopter ride around Mt. Rushmore. This was a surprise for them and I think they really enjoyed it. After that we went to Mt. Rushmore and did the hike around the bottom of the monument. This is the second time we have been there and it is just as impressive as the first. After that we drove the Needles Hwy back to Custer State Park and around Sylvan Lake. This was a must for Nicholas as it was in the movie National Treasures Two. We did a short hike around part of the lake then Nicholas thought he saw a rattle snake so we decided to cut the hike short. A very full and fun day.
