Though we'd driven by Mt. Rushmore a few times during the daylight hours we decided to take advantage of the KOA bus and see the lighting ceremony. When you walk into the park, you enter through a display of the state flags, displayed in order of their entry into the union. Connecticut was right at the front. You can then follow a trail that allows you to get quite close to the faces. As dusk approaches, a very patriotic and informative movie about the four presidents is shown in the ampitheater
. At the conclusion of the show, the monument is lit.
