Day 1~ We made it!

Saturday ~ June 18, 2011

Road Rash 2011 got off to a great start! We left home at 6:15 am on Saturday morning! Our itinerary called for a 14 hour drive with our destination being Tower Campground in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Jim started off and drove a marathon 7 hour shift! Dave did some driving too!

What did the women do, you may be asking? Well, not a whole lot!! They had a lovely time watching the scenery fly by, reading, napping, looking up future stops on the internet and talking...
well, by the pictures it looks like Diana did a lot of the talking! Was Kathy listening?

Not so much.

How about Dave and Jim...

Don't think they were either!

Lunch time was a blast trying to maneuver while the rv was moving at 70 miles an hour! Ha! Bet they are all listening now! That's a big knife!

We stopped at places like this...
to get stuff like that...
and to check that these were still hanging there!

We found our way to Minnesota!

We saw many wind turbines~

We were very excited to see this sign go flying by... South Dakota!

We arrived at campsite at 9:15 central time and we had traveled 975 miles! Great job guys!
CHEERS!

Morning Day 2, brings us Sunday June 19th. Father's Day!

We have a couple of those aboard!

Kathy and Diana treated them to a fabulous breakfast!
Happy Father's Day!

Tower Campgrounds...
We have been on the road about an hour today and plan to drive to Rapid City, South Dakota. Our camp tonight will be The Horse Thief Campsite and Resort! We have taken beautiful pictures on the road this morning and plan on visiting Mount Rushmore today!
