Minnesota Sampler, Nebraska to Minnesota

We left home around 9:30 a.m. or so.and headed north northeast, first through Sioux City and LeMars, IA , stopping for lunch in Worthington, MN. The rest of the afternoon we drove north, arriving in Sauk Centre at 5:00. We found the city campground right on the lake. The nice homes across the lake reminded both of us of Melrose Bay in northern Florida, just a block or so from John's parents' home. After setting up our replacement LL Bean tent, we made a quick trip to Walmart for bananas, bagels, fried chicken, and some other grocery items. Across the street we found a small, folding table to replace the one still sitting in our garage. Hope that's the only thing we forgot, but knowing us.... There is a pleasant breeze and almost clear blue skies. What a nice dinner setting! A bike trail runs right behind the campground and meets up with the Lake Wobegon Trail about ¼ mile away. We're headed there in the morning – still haven't decided if we will spend tomorrow night here. That decision has to be made before we ride . Check back to find out what we decided.

Here's a photo of Gromit and Hutch giving us driving advice!
