I have to admit I've never understood why anyone would want to desecrate a natural formation like Mt Rushmore in that way. But, I'm Australian so what would I know...
When we were in the USA in 2013 we were about three hours drive of Mt Rushmore but none of us had any interest or desire to visit. We all preferred our landscapes unspoiled. (I do admit, however, that it made a great backdrop in Hitchcock's 'North by Northwest') Cheers Brian ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Brian Walters Western Sydney Australia http://lyons-ryan.org/southernlight/ On Mon, Oct 26, 2015, at 07:30 AM, knarf wrote: > I was being ironic.
