The End

Well, I'm sitting comfortably at home and typing the last entry for my vacation blog. We got home around 8:00 last night (Friday, June 25th).

Mt. Rushmore was really neat. It's one of those places that you just have to see to believe. I've seen pictures all my life, but it's just so amazing to see it right in front of you. There's a really nice walkway that goes around the memorial, and there are several spots where you can take some really good pictures.

After Mt. Rushmore, we were all ready to get back home. Three weeks is a LONG time to be anywhere...even if it is vacation! Overall, I have to say that it was a once in a lifetime experience. Usually it takes a lot of time to see all the things we got to see. We just happened to see them all in one trip. I'm very thankful that it went as well as it did and that we made it home safely.

Some of our favorite places were definitely Mt. Rushmore, Yellowstone, (I can't recommend that enough) the Grand Tetons, Buffalo (WY), Cody (WY)-home of the rodeo, and Billings (MT). Wyoming, in general, was a beautiful state all the way across. What little we saw of Montana was, too. I've heard that Glacier (MT) is supposed to be absolutely beautiful. Maybe that will be our next trip...but not for a while!

I'm going to post some of my favorite shots of our trip. We're all really glad to be back in Tennessee, but the experience was one we will never forget.
