Thursday August 28th













Chamberlain, SD- $3.61

So we just passed the exit that went off to where Laura Ingalls Wilder lived. Little house has always been one of my favorites (the books and the show). Looking around it's amazing to think that this area is originally where all that stuff happened. I can't wait to get to Minnesota now...maybe I'll see some of the towns they mention. Plus...Prince is from there :).

There are some amazing old farm houses here in the mid west. I can picture them back in the late 1800's and early 1900's. It's amazing people still live in them. But I am sure they were passed down through the families. They are just beautiful.

Worthington, Mn- $3.69


Fairmont, MN- $3.59

I have to say Minnesota is one boring state. I've seen corn and soy (we think) and not much else. We just passed a sign that says we are now in Mower County...WOW. I really think the "interesting" part of minnesota must be up north in Minneapolis/ St. Paul. Cause it certianly isn't here. About 100 more miles and we will be in wisconsin. Hopefully a more intersting state.
Spam Museum- Austin, MN
