Boom

On July 3rd Mt. Rushmore celebrates America's independence by putting on the #4 firework display in the country. Here are a few of the favorite pictures we took that night. In the first two pictures you can see a small fire on top of Jefferson's head. The fire danger had been "very high" for most of the week before the 3rd but some rain fell that morning so it was lowered to "high" and the fireworks could go on. The fire lasted a short time and didn't interrupt the display. We were not actually at the memorial but on a hill above the memorial. I'll try later to post a video clip Nathan took of the finale. Boom, boom!!
