Day 1: WI, MN, SD

This is what we scribbled in the notebook today (along with highlighting our route in at the atlas):

-Half hour head-start (left at 7:30 am instead of 8am)

-Make it to Osseo, WI by 10:30am

-Go to Norske Nook for breakfast and THE BEST PIE ON EARTH

-LOTTTTTTS OF RAIN

-1:30pm Minnesota: MALL OF AMERICA
*shopping, Cinnabons, gawk at amusement park, and FINALLY SUNSHINE!

-Hit the road, pull over @ Speedway to wait out eye of huge storm. Spouts of heavy rain and sunshine.

-Bumfuck Nowhere detour somewhere in the middle of MN

-Sacred Heart's hotel looks like a rundown apartment building, and their museum looks like a church

-WATERTOWN, SOUTH DAKOTA: Ramkota Hotel Best Western."

We'll be exploring more of Watertown, SD tomorrow. So far we like it: it's like being in the twilight zone because it's so similar to Watertown, WI! For now, though, we're gonna relax in our individual queen sized beds and call it a night.

Love Always & Forever,

Stephanie
