Totally cool stuff SBS I was at Mount Rushmore in the mid-70s !!!😎😎😎

Hey me too... I was 3-4 years old. I thought you looked familiar.
Thanks for looking and the upvote. You're too kind 😇

It is worth more than an upvote. It is worth a reply and a resteem. :=)

Very generous and kind my friend. Thank you.

Looked like fun and thinks for the history lesson. 👍🏻

Thanks bro. Yeah, the kids learned a lot. They were pretty excited at some of the sites they'd heard about at school and seen on TV.

Nice little family photo dude

Thanks, that's most of us. Just missing the missus.

Cool,post! Thanks for sharing

Thanks very much for you support. Glad you liked the post ;-)

Man I really need to make it there. I have a bunch of places on my bucket list. Thanks for sharing!

Giant Redwoods... I stand by my recommendation, that's a "not to be missed" experience in one's lifetime.

I need to see Mt Rushmore!!! Gosh... so many sites and sights to see and visit! Thanks for sharing! Beautiful family... where is the wife? No selfie stick, LOL!

She's on today's post. That Rushmore pic we had "technical difficulties".
