Day 3

So the mountain closest to us is on fire.  Yep.  It's been burning for about 6 hours now.  They are going to bring in planes tomorrow to help put it out. The office staff told us that we are in no danger....  


Other than that, it's been a great day.  We visited Mount Rushmore and Crazy Horse. We watched a movie about the guy that started the Crazy Horse memorial, but our bus driver had some amazing facts about CH.  He really pissed the white people off and they stabbed him.  I'm going to read more about him later. 


We also went to a drive thru wildlife park. We got to see some pretty cute animals and they were walking around our car. I really wanted to get out and touch the bears.  We were there during feeding time.  There was a guy in the back of a pick up truck with a shovel slinging bread out. The bears took off running toward the truck. It was so cute. 


They also had a few exhibits of local wild life. badgers, river otters, skunks, porcupines, bobcats, baby bears, and a huge grizzly bear!   Bear country USA is awesome! 


We are going to reptile world tomorrow.
