Welcome to South Dakota - we headed south, passing through the town of Belle Fourche, which is the geographic center of the U.S.
"Center of the U.S." Dedication Plaque - Belle Fourche became the closest town to the new U.S. geographic center when Alaska and Hawaii became states in 1959
Model of the Memorial Statue (1/34th scale) - when the memorial is done, this is what it will look like. It was initiated in 1948 and turns 70 years old this year, just like me
Current Progress on the Mountain - much work remains to be done to flesh out Crazy Horse and his horse. The horse's head can be seen outlined in white
Close Up View - a closer view. To give you some scale, notice the truck on the right hand part of the arm. When completed, this sculpture will be the largest in the world
