Last weekend by boyfriend and I went to South Dakota. It was an amazing trip and I’m so thankful we had this time together. While there, we went and saw Mount Rushmore and Crazy Horse which was awesome. Mount Rushmore was a lot larger than I expected, and Crazy Horse was massive in comparison. Enjo
