Today is my daughter, Katie’s, birthday AND their 12th
wedding anniversary! Happy birthday to
Katie, and happy anniversary to Katie and Rick.
We got up fairly early and had a leisurely breakfast and
visit with BOTH Mark and Arlene. We left
their place a little after 8 AM and drove to our the farm house that we had
bought and worked on, just across from the dairy we had been involved
with. They are currently milking over
2,000 cows are still expanding to their capacity of 2,800 cows. Ellen
said she missed the old farm house.

| Looking good..... |
We finally entered into South Dakota and headed straight for
the first visitors center east of Vermillion.
We collected more maps and about 20 pounds of ‘tourist info’ on the
whole state. The goal for tonight was to
get to the “Louise and Clark Recreation Area” just west of Yankton.
We got a ‘prime’ campsite on the Missouri River and had time
to meet some camping neighbors from Norfolk, NE and then had BBQ ribs on the
grill. After a long walk, we’re watching
football on TV and planning to spend all day tomorrow learning about Lewis and
Clark.
