Day 2 of the trip was busy, but fun! To start the day, Shaun proposed and I said yes! Then we headed to see Mt. Rushmore. We spent some time walking around the trail and visiting the gift shop. We took a scenic drive through the Black Hills, and then headed up to Sturgis. We spent a little bit of time walking up and down main street in Deadwood. Then we drove into Wyoming to Devils Tower. After visiting the tower, we finally made it to Casper where we stayed at the C'mon Inn which was super nice.

| Vultures soaring around the top of the monument. |
 |
| The twig like structure inside the crack was a ladder used in the 1890's to climb to the top. |
 |
| Some climbers climbing up the tower. |
 |
| A piece of the tower that had fallen off. |
 |
| Can you spot the climbers? |
 |
| So we were coming to the end of the trail when we noticed a vulture sitting in a tree. Soon we realized there was an entire tree full of vultures... |
 |
| And another.... |
 |
| And another....That's when we decided it'd be a good time to leave. |
 |
| A little ways up the road, we had to stop for some turkeys crossing the road. |
