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
