We started off the morning at Wal-Mart getting our second o
il change of the trip. While we were waiting on the car, we went to get some lunch. When we finally got the car back, we headed to Mount Rushmore. I had seen the memorial when I was younger so I was excited to see how much it had changed. When we arrived, my first thought was: it is smaller than I remember. They had also built a lot of new buildings since the last time I was there. There is a trail that you can take that travels closer to the 
memorial and there are other things to do than just sit there looking at the 4 dead presidents. Alan was impressed by the carving and he thought that George Washington's carving was better than the others. We walked the trail, took a few pictures, and headed on our way. We started heading to my father's house in Iowa. It was a pretty long drive, so we stopped before we could make it. When we checked into the hotel, we noticed that there was a movie theater behind it. We decided to catch the late show of "Night of the Museum 2". It was the perfect ending to a long day of driving.
