2/27/2022 to 3/1/2022 From Fort Smith and Pea Ridge we turned north towards South Dakota. March 1, was a LONG drive day of almost 500 miles but the further north you go the harder it is to find campgrounds open, it also put us with in easy reach of Sioux Falls. Originally I thought we …

8/10/2020 No wonder I’m tired I drove 567 miles today, walmart to walmart, with a stop at the Mississippi River headwaters in Minnesota. That’s something that was on my list for a while. It would have been nice to stay a while but for being in the middle of nowhere it was kinda busy. We …
