After all of the hype of these four presidents carved into the side
of a mountain, I was both impressed at the amount of detail and effort
that went into creating the memorial, while a tad disappointed that it
wasn't bigger. I guess seeing it on TV and in movies just creates
a sense of expectation that the dynamite and chisels of the actual creation
couldn't match.
Now there's a darn nice sign, if I do say
so myself.
I couldn't decide which angle was best
for the picture, so I took three... and posted 'em all..
... so someone got creative, and make a
mock-up of the ship out of concrete in the city's park.
See? Not as big as you'd think, when
you throw some people in for a scale comparison.
Toward the end of the visit, I got tired,
but did get myself into a carried mode (with handles!).
