We're heading to Vegas, Death Valley, Sequioa the Yosemite! YEA!!!!!!!!!! then later in August I'm hoping for St Louis Arch... Don't know why,,, sometimes I get a place stuck in my head and I HAVE to go. it was like that a few years ago with Mt Rushmore... did you know it's free to go to the Monument? you do have to pay for parking though; we were there for 4th of July, they had the celebration the day before, the park was completely empty on that morning, it was fantastic! We brought our own food and had breakfast on the patio below the monument all by our selves, watched the helicopters removing the last of the pyrotechnics from the top of the mountain. That was a great trip!
