At the conclusion of this post, I hope to be writing from Mitchell, SoDak. That's the hip way the kids refer to Southern Dakota. It looks to be a six hour-ish trip which means we will be driving in some darkness. However, if we make it, that's an hour closer to home than if we stop for the night in Sioux Falls.
In the interest of safe travel, we are opting to hit the road today. I have checked the various trouble spots on our route and everything looks great for today. Tomorrow is promised to no traveler.
We are not in a hurry to take off. In fact, we are going to lunch with Margaret and Neil and possibly Phil at the General Store in Valley Junction.
So for this morning, I'm gathering things together and trying to make sure I don't leave something behind, which I always do and most probably will.
We shall talk next from the road.
We did indeed make it to Mitchell. We drove for about 5 hours, 51 minutes and covered some 366.8 miles. We had great roads and clear weather for the drive.
Prior to getting under way, we stopped in Redfield to visit Susan's cousin Louise. That used up about an hour of travel time but we decided that family is more important than travel.
We had a nice little dinner at a place called Whiskey Creek. Now it is time for bed as we are arising at 6AM.
