) So anyway, the obvious way to get there was to fly. Becky and I got up early on Saturday morning. Had a great flight to Rapid with severe high pressure system. On Sunday we asked Elsworth AirForce base for vectors to fly past Mount Rushmore. The controllers were great and we had a very enjoyable time viewing this wonder from the air.
From there we went east over the Badlands of South Dakota. Very pretty fall trip.
If you ever get the chance and are in that area make certain you see these wonders.
And last night I went out with Becky as she practiced landings, then flew over some of our brilliant fall tree colors. While I'm often envious of all you guys living down south once our snow and cold weather arrive, right now is the prettiest time around here to see things from the air. Get out there and fly!
