Two Marvels; One that inspires

Yesterday we visited two miracles of public art- Mt Rushmore and the Crazy Horse Memorial.  Everyone knows Mt Rushmore, and it was interesting to finally see it up close.  It was completed in less than 20 years, mostly with Federal government money.  Crazy Horse, dozens of times larger, has been under construction since 1948, may be finished in another 50-60 years, and has never got a dime from the taxpayers.  Much more to the stories than that ... Principally about the two egotistical geniuses who were the artists. But Crazy Horse inspires...we will bring our grand children if we ever have any.  Mt Rushmore is a tourist attraction.
