It's like the Dive Bar commercials with Lady Gaga on Cyclone.TV
Well, yeah, cause goddess.
Lotta models try to transition to acting. Few of them score with the acting chops she either brought or developed.

61, like Boxster said it doesn't cover parking costs like at Mount Rushmore. I do have every intention on buying one once I am eligible.
Yeah...national monuments, national seashores, & national memorials (and anything run by individual states) are hit & miss, but like I said, it never hurts to ask
I would love to get to Assateague some day - absolutely LOVED the Misty books growing up. I should get them for baby.
I think reading to babies, little kids is so much fun. When they are really little you can read them anything, once they are a little older your kind of stuck with what they want, until they get old enough you can direct them to stories you like. Have fun!
Finally!!! Someone else who knows the story of Misty of Chincoteague!!! No one else understood why I wanted to go there so much.
We actually went twice. The first time, we spent the whole day there, only saw some of the ponies at a great distance, but really enjoyed wandering the trails and beaches. When we got back to Dover, we thought we had lost Lew's wallet. We looked everywhere, and finally concluded that it must have fallen out at the park. We went down there on the way home to check the visitor's center and the park rangers office. We also retraced our steps...and the ponies were EVERYwhere! Apparently you're not allowed to bother them, so if they just walk into your campsite, you just move back and let them.

Were those new books when you were little? I seriously read those a hundred times. Then Stormy, The Godolphin Arabian - I loved Marguerite Henry!
I wasn't sure so I looked it up. Misty was first published in 1947, so 8 years before I was born. I remember reading them in elementary school...read quite a few of her books. King of the Wind, Brighty, Sea Star, and of course Misty. I loved them.
We just did a trip to through this area a few weeks ago. I agree with @jcyclonee that you can skip the corn palace. Both Wind and Jewel Caves weren't doing normal tours because their elevators were not working. We did the "strenuous" tour at Jewel which consists of ladders and carrying your own oil lamp. It was an experience. Wind Cave didn't have this option so we had to skip it.
Take the Needle Highway to Sylvan Lake. Also, don't miss out on Lead, Deadwood and the Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway!
Watched "The King's Speech" with the vixen last night - I had not seen it before. A wonderful story, and Colin Firth and Geoffrey Rush were both superb in their roles. Firth's simmering anger at not being able to speak correctly came through as genuine. Funniest scene was when King George (Firth) discovers that he can speak quite ably when shouting obscenities, particularly the "F" word in all its forms.
Turn on the game, Clones up 21-0 and kicking off. ULM goes right down and scores. I truly am a curse.
Missed the whole 3rd quarter, Clones score 21. I shouldn't watch the 4th
I slept through most of the 1st quarter. Tuned in just in time for our 1st score. We have scored nine straight times since I tuned in. Almost worth the nasty cold that took me out of commission yesterday.

You too, eh? Stayed home yesterday & today, will stay home tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be mostly over this before we take off for Texas on Monday. I don't want to be around my elderly father if I'm still contagious.
