This Douglas C-47 Skytrain transport took part in the D-Day landings June 6, 1944. It was used to tow a paratroop glider to the landing areas. It was rescued in 2007 from an airfield in Bosnia and restored and painted in its original colors.

This restored Dakota C-47 transport took part in the D-Day landings, towing a paratroop glider to Normandy. The plane was rescued from an airfield in Bosnia in 2007 and restored to its original D-Day colors and is on display at the Merville Museum. The propeller in the foreground is from a Dakota that crashed on D-Day killing all aboard.

This is a scenic part of Route 87, the Peter Norbeck Scenic Byway, in the area of the Black Hills and Mount Rushmore, South Dakota.

This is the first in a number of photos of Mount Rushmore I'll be posting in the next few days.

The second in a series of pictures of Mount Rushmore, this shot was taken at night when the faces are lighted as part of a presentation on the history of the carvings. Taken with a Minolta SR-T 201.

This third shot of Mount Rushmore is a reflection in a window of the visitors' center there.
