If you are planning a trip to the Black Hills of South Dakota, take the time see the Crazy Horse Memorial. On our latest excursion, we became a member of the Driller's Club, which entitled us to a trip to the top of the mountain. It was an unforgettable experience. As we stood on the arm of the sculpture, we were able to look directly into the eyes of Crazy Horse.
