Hello,
Sorry for anyone who reads this, but I have not been able to do much at all online lately because of school, which started on September 1st.
I am currently developing new areas and hopefully will get far or finish them soon.

Back from South Dakota!

I’m back from my vacation to South Dakota.
Pictures will be up soon in MyPhoto. We got to see Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Deadwod, Wall Drug, and lots more. It was all a lot of fun.
Mt. Rushmore is huge. It does not seem all that large in photos or even from a few miles away. When you walk up the seven hundred some steps though and get to be in front of the monument, it is gigantic! The eyes are so real also – they carved out the pupils so the iris’ have depth! It is truly astounding how a team of people working at $0.35-$0.75 /hr with a 50 lb jackahamer (holding it out horizontally) created such a masterpiece.
Crazy Horse is even larger! Appearently, Mt. Rushmore is the size of just the head itself! They are only so far done with the head. Hopefully it will be done within my lifetime!
Deadwood was great. Lots of history. I cannot get into too much detail with that, but it was amazing.
We did quite a bit of shopping and eating.
Not quite sure what else to add, but it was a blast!
