Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park and1880 Train

Here they are - the four Presidents! Mount Rushmore was a huge place - not in space but in surroundings.
Sculptures of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln represent the first 150 years of the history of the United States.
Do you see the little men on top of Jefferson? They are setting the fireworks for fourth of July!


After Mount Rushmore we drove thru Custer State Park - more or less a green park with Ponderosa pines and green medows - it's all green and fresh.
We met theese two bisons just a mile inside the park. Close your windovs and stay calm!
I liked the park - it was absolutly beautiful!

We drove to Hill City - a cute little city in the Black Hills. Here we went along - as others tourists and took The 1880 train - DO IT!

Thank you for visiting my blog - it's less scrapping and more vacation this time of year!

Interstate 90 from Illinois to Washigton State

This layout did I made for The Grand Prix Competition on Scrapbook Express. It should be straighten lines and only two stashy embellishments. I scanned and printed the American Flag in grey on white bazill- then I wrote some words about August and September 1977 - added a picture in black and white - me leaving Norway for Seattle.
And the little Norwegian Flag - I got it from my mom when I left - she has also taken the picture.
