The City of Presidents

We saw the four presidents at Mount Rushmore.  Now it was time to see the rest of the family.   Outside the Hotel Alex Johnson is a life-sized seated President Lincoln sculpture.  This statue was sculpted by Gutzum Borglum, the sculptor of Mt. Rushmore.  


Rapid City, South Dakota has included all 42 former presidents in its sculptures around the downtown area.  They plan on continuing this tradition as each president leaves office.


George Walker Bush with his canine campanion, Barney, perhaps best known as the dog who bit a reporter.


Thomas Jefferson, the gifted writer of the Declaration of Independence.


Andrew Jackson was a man of strong will, the people's president.


Ronald Reagan in western attire is one of my favorite presidents during my lifetime.
