Day 4
Today was filled with a lot of driving…many, many, many miles. We got through South Dakota and into Minnesota (Don’tcha know), still on I-90.
There really wasn’t much to Minnesota. A lot of farm land, some pastures speckled with cows, various-sized grain silos, and large farm houses nestled in clumps of trees. There were some real rough patches of road and the occasional construction detour. Other than that, not much to report. On the bright side, there was finally a break in the clouds and the sun made an appearance.
We crossed the Mississippi…yup…the ol’ miss…
And into Wisconsin…
We visited with the Ingersoll’s and had a great time. Paulette and Chelle walked down memory lane.
Don & Phil had great discussions spanning from beer-butt chicken to politics.
We didn’t get a chance to get a picture of Ingersoll kids, but my have they grown! Des is now taller than Chelle, Chey is growing like a weed, and Jeffrey is taller than his picture. Makes Chelle feel old!
Jacob was pretty fussy during our visit. We’re not sure if it’s something Chelle is consuming, or if he’s just on RV overload. He slept better swaddled, so that’s good. We just want for him to be as comfee as possible. Phil has been taking him for walks so he can get some fresh air and calm down. That seems to be working pretty well.
Tomorrow we’ll go through Chicago. We were going to stop there for lunch, but Don pointed out that it may be hard to find parking for a 31-foot RV. Why is that the one fact that escaped us while making our plans? Makes us have to rethink our plans for other places too! Got any suggestions?
