No National Parks, Historic Sites, Monuments, etc today. We will be goofing today. Yes KW, you goof everyday. Ok KW, group photo.

Hey tour guide, looks like Mrs tour guide is a natural in the cockpit. 

 

Next stop, Black Hills Harley-Davidson. We are going to pick up our new trike.  Oh ok KW, you have never embellished any story. No trike this trip.

TTFN:

City of Presidents. 

Visitors to historic downtown Rapid City are greeted by the City of Presidents, a series of life-size bronze statues of our nation’s past presidents along the city’s streets and sidewalks. 

The City of Presidents project began in 2000 to honor the legacy of the American presidency. Each of the sculptures is privately funded, and the pattern of placement was chosen to maintain a coherent structure and eliminate any sense of favoritism or political gain. 

Painted Bison. 

 

 

 

 

Ok, this one is not painted, yet.
