Daddy's alternate title: The Mountain
Tragically Missing James Madison

If you see a picture of Mount Rushmore,
the mountain is a lot more different than the picture. In the
pictures it is usually closer up. The actual mountain is really far
away.
Mount Rushmore was the first place that
we did the Junior Ranger program and got our first Junior Ranger
badge. It took fourteen years to complete the sculpture. They made it
with all different kinds of tools. Gutson Borglum was the director of
making the sculptor. They did 90% of it using dynamite.
At Mount Rushmore I bought a Junior
Ranger hat.
Da End
good facts and nice hat, Mark!
ReplyDeleteGutson Borglum is one of my new favorite names.
