Re: 2022 Trip To South Dakota
our journey to Estelline is over .... today we covered 332.6 miles in 5 hr 26 min .... an unexpected 40 mile detour was the major bummer .... all together we've covered 1,681.5 miles in 28 hrs 52 min driving time .... during that time we averaged 58.2 mph which ain't too bad .... much of our standard setup has been completed, the rest will be taken care of tomorrow .... hopefully will have some pictures to post

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: 2022 Trip To South Dakota
good wishes appreciated .... rain moved through sometime during our first night of this stay in Estelline .... I heard very light rain around 5AM but slept through the rest .... no more rain forecasted for today but its supposed to be pretty wet around here tomorrow .... so, outdoor site setup will be paused until Monday ....

Re: 2022 Trip To South Dakota
we awoke to a beautiful, typically windy morning in East Central South Dakota .... rain is supposed to be on the way .... per the written forecast rain is on the way .... per the weather radar, the front should fizzle out and go south of us .... one of Maureen's brothers, his wife and one of their granddaughters came by for breakfast .... if the rain holds off we hope to finish our site setup today

Re: 2022 Trip To South Dakota
yet another cloudy but nice morning in East Central South Dakota .... depending on the forecast you look at, rain is suppose to be on the way .... back home we know which sources tend to be the most accurate but out here we don't have a clue .... the Minnesota Twins has given the town of Estelline a grant to rebuild its baseball field .... work is underway, the infield is really looking good .... breakfast passed earlier this morning, depending on if the rain comes or not, we may smoke some chicken this afternoon

Re: 2022 Trip To South Dakota
talk about a beautiful day, this has most certainly been one .... after completing our setup we fired up our Davy Crockett smoker this morning and smoked a section of port tenderloin and some baking potatoes .... tomorrow evening we will slice the loin into some chops and prepare the taters as twice baked .... with the price of diesel, we are making a strong effort to maximize what gets done each time we crank our truck .... example: we left camp a 3:30PM and drove 20 some miles to Walmart in Brookings to drop off a prescription, then to the local Culver's for a burger, on to a community park to watch a 8 year old niece play coach pitch softball, from there back to Walmart to pickup the meds and grocery shop, from there back to the camper where we are settled in for the evening
