Is this really what you see when you look at Mt Rushmore from your
side of the fence?

I just got back from seeing Mount Rushmore in person and I was less than
impressed. I understand the effort and talent involved in sculpting in
the medium but the size was unimpressive.

Well, of course. Appreciating Rushmore requires an aesthetic sense of
some sort. That would leave you out.

All it shows is that Herring has a fetish for the backsides of old men.

Did you go see crazy horse?
I choked at the $20 and admired it from the road. (every time we went
anywhere it seemed) Now if they were actually blasting some rock I
might have ponied up.
Mt Rushmore is pretty cool from Iron Mountain Road (or whatever that
mule trail is called).


20 years ago, we went by Crazy Horse. Was little carving done, but a great
paint job where they were going to remove rock.

Yeah, I was driving the trail vehicle with the tinted windows and we
only had to pay $20 to get in.

We went on a Tuesday and I was hoping that some explosions were going to
happen. But, all that happened was my wife spend a couple of hundred
dollars on some jewelery.

You are out in the West with the wide expanses with the huge mountains
and such and the faces on Rushmore were really small.

If it is where the ear of the horse was to be carved they haven't made a
whole lot of progress.
