FLASHBACK: Rapid City, SD

Driving out to Mt. Rushmore I stopped at the lovely and majestic Presidents Park, a series of three giant busts of Reagan, Kennedy, and W in a vacant lot next to a gas station. It totally worked as a roadside attraction because I had my choice of 3 or 4 mini-marts and made my choice based on the presence of the statues. Take note that Bush's tie has little elephants on it...I think he does wear Republican stuff like that all the time. I've also noticed that when he's in casual wear he sports federal gov't gear - FBI windbreakers, NAVY pullovers, etc. - that looks like he got it for free with a subscription to ESPN the magazine

UPDATE: After using the Googles I found out that the three statues I saw are an advertisement for President's Park, named by USA Today as one of the Top 10 Places to See in the USA and one of Life Magazone's 21 Hidden Treasures of the USA.
