10/31 All The Way to Iowa

We woke up feeling very rested, packed up and found a Perkins in Rapid City for breakfast.  We've been to Rapid City before, but it wasn't recently, and this seems to be an entirely different city than I remember.  We skirted around the southeast part of the city and found I-90 East.  Now it's nearly a straight path to Mom's house!  

The highlights of the drive were reading at least 100 Wall Drug signs, crossing the Missouri River at Chamberlain and viewing the Dignity Statue just east of Chamberlain.  We stopped listening to that Patterson book (Coast-to-Coast Murders) because it just didn't make a lot of sense to us.  So today we listened to quite a few podcasts instead!

We pulled into mom's driveway about 6, dodging the trick or treaters.  They were funny running around in their little costumes!  Good to see mom, and she had whipped up some soup and cornbread for supper.  After that we had to watch a terrible Vikings game, just to round out the day after driving 457 miles!
