water, water, corn fields and farm after farm


It was great to see Sarah and Ryan's new apartment with two views of Lake Superior. The upper living room gives the impression of being in a tree house. So great to just kick back and chat. We hit the road headed for Sioux Falls, today's destination. Stopped at Pipestone National monument where Indians quarried for a special rock to create peace pipes with. The prairie surrounding the site created a lovely backdrop for the rocky outcropping, cliffs that seemed to rise out of the fertile ground. A welcome relief from farm after farm and field after field of corn. Today was a driving day: left Duluth at 10 am and arrived in Sioux Falls at 7 pm. Can't wait to see Mt. Rushmore tomorrow. All for now, Kare
