Looking for Robert Redford and finding something else. . .

 I've always been in love with Robert Redford since I've seen his movie, The Great Gatsby, and he was laying face down on an air mattress in his wonderful swimming pool.  Visualize this!  His little cheekies like molded perfection-my vote for the world's best butt.  So now you can understand my excitment when we planned a trip through his town of Sundance.  Now this is where the Sundance Film Festival is held and maybe if I keep my eyes open and cross my fingers, I can get a glimpse of his wonderful ass.  NOT TO BE!
I got educated and disappointed all at the same time.  There are supposedly lots of towns by the name of Sundance and R.R. lives in Sundance Arizona not Sundance Wyoming.  But what I found on this trip is something else.  One of the world's largest natural phallic symbols - Devils Tower.
 
Rising up against the sky out of the rolling plains grassland, this behemoth stands alone and is awsome.  Did you know it is the offical first national momument and the core of an ancient volcano?  Also Devils Tower is a sacred Indian site and brave climbers reguarily scale the vertical rock face.  When we were there, these climbers looked like ants going up a tree trunk.
Jody and Kiel while visiting from Tennessee seemed to enjoy the prairie dog village here too almost as much as Devils Tower.  Of course we had to take them to Mt. Rushmore.
and Crazy Horse

plus Custer State Park
Then what do you do out West when Kiel buys a cowboy hat but go to a chuckwagon supper where they could pan for gold
and put Jody in jail



Have to admit the place is awfully quiet since they've gone home and I couldn't find Robert Redford.  But wait!  Is that a rumble of a Harley I hear?  Yes, it won't be quiet long.  Found out the Sturgis Rally is really for 3 weeks not one as I expected.  And they've started their engines and are a coming. . .later
