The current time is 7:52, East Coast time...the problem though is we drove 10 hours yesterday, leavening the East coast time zone behind and entered into central time, an hour behind. It was sad to leave Jill, Steve, and Emma! We had such a great time and appreciate the five star treatment they showed us! Thanks so much guys!
The drive was non-eventful. We stopped for an hour for a lunch break, taking the top down for the first time on the trip, and driving through the University of Illinos campus. That was fun because several of Dan's family attended that college, including Jill and his dad. Our hotel had several bad write ups online about it and we were a little nervous about what conditions we would arrive to. We were happily surprised~ it works for a one night stop! Finally, we drove into the city of Des Moines for dinner at a great restaurant Racoon River. Delicious food and fun atmosphere. We found it in a book my mom gave to us a few years ago! Thanks mom!
Today we drive to Rapid City, SD to spend a few days at Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, and the other beauties of the Black Hill! I am personally thrilled for today and the seeing this stone sculpture! I am sure the pictures will be amazing! Check back later to view the photo albums!
Hope all is well
Love to all
Laura and Dan
