Day 24 - Sioux Falls, SD to Olathe, KS

And the winner of best "Welcome to Our State" sign is........Minnesota! We were only in Minnesota for a few miles, but they had this grandiose sign at the first rest area we saw and we just had to get a picture with it. The thing was, we had to trek through some longish grass and shrubs to get right up to it and we wound up with our worst mosquito bites of the entire trip.






















This was pretty much all we saw while in Iowa...yeah...so...that's all we've got to say about Iowa.
















We were driving through Omaha at the time the College World Series was going on. I really wanted to drive by Rosenblatt Stadium, not only because we were there during the Series, but also because it was the last College World Series to be played at this famous venue. There were about 17,487,389 people around the stadium...and there was construction...and the zoo was next door, so traffic was slightly hectic to say the least.















The first time it felt like we were getting close to home was when we passed into Missouri.
