Crazy Horse Memorial
The Crazy Horse Memorial is still being carved out of a mountain in the Black Hills. When it is done, you'll see Crazy Horse sitting atop his horse and pointing toward the Black Hills, the land of his people.

Mt. Rushmore1
Mt. Rushmore from a distance. We were actually driving to see the Crazy Horse Memorial first, and then caught this first glimpse of Mt. Rushmore.

Devil's Tower1

What is this?
Ken and I spotted this old machinery along that dirt road to Devil's Tower. We don't know what it is, but thought it looked kind of interesting.

I know what it is...
The old farm equipment is a grain thresher machine, it was used the same way grain combines are today. I think it is a McCormick Brand. Farmers would run it off of a steam engine and put bundles of grain in one end and someone would stand under the piece that came off of the top and bag the grain into burlap sacks as it came out, the grain would then be sold. The back end of it would shoot the stocks and stems out into a straw pile, they would use the straw for bedding animals, or feed.
