American Vacation Day 4: The Needles + Flinstones!

On our way to Mount Rushmore we had to go buy tickets to the Jewel Cave on Thursday morning.  It sells out so you have to buy in advance.  We drove the scenic route along The Needles Highway.  We were able to witness the Cathedral Spirals and they were breathtaking.  I love the vivid blue sky behind the needles and the car driving through the one lane tunnel.
We made a pitstop at the Flintstone Park.  They have a eatery, a store and a campground.  Apparently the campground is as expensive as a hotel.  When I was perusing the store I saw lady buy a bunch of t-shirts and toys for her kids.  I was surprised because I didn't think kids these days would even know who
The Flinstones were since it was no longer on or at least I don't think it is. It was a neat little place for Greg and I to go to.  The two photos in the bottom are not absolutely identical.  One has me in it as the waitress and the other is Finley.
