Our first National Monument

We spent the Saturday night in the Gillette, Wy Super Wal-Mart parking lot (with lots of company) and went to church there Sunday morning. More about that later - a great church, like many we found out West. After church we drove a couple of hours into the Black Hills to Devil's Tower. Pretty impressive rock.

We didn't stay long because we had no intention of 'communing with nature' physically or metaphysically.

Its a shame we let some old white guy name this Devils Tower when all the Indian nations had a Bear legend that surrounded this special place in their world - and all called it some form of Bear Mountain - a more fitting name, we thought.
