So, today's travel day was a lot longer distance, but much more bearable. We traveled from Madison, WI, to Mitchell, South Dakota...AKA, no big-city driving. We stopped at Trempealeau National Wildlife Refuge on the Mississippi River for a while and saw some American White Pelicans out in the water, which was pretty cool. Minnesota was an extremely long drive, but there really wasn't a whole lot going on since we were almost on the border of Iowa...we thought that's where we were a couple times because of all the corn. Honestly...even after we passed through Sioux Falls, we still felt like we were in the Midwest. I just really don't think of CORN!!! when I think of South Dakota. Ah, oh well.
Mitchell, SD, is interesting: home of the Corn Palace. Yes, the Corn Palace.
I can't wait to get to the other side of the dang state.
Really, though...it is cool finally being here. I'm really excited to get to the prairie tomorrow. Should be pretty awesome.
Casa del Rey in Sioux Falls, SD, is a fantastic Mexican restaurant, FYI.
Here's a picture of the Mississippi River crossing at Winona, Minnesota:
Peace.
