New study tells us what we already knew: Kids need their dadsWhile I may not agree with the confrontational tone in this commentary article, the underlying facts are true; kids do much better with involved dads in their lives.

Day 68, 26 Aug 08 - Wall to Interior

I am trying an experiment using Stefan’s Centro phone and the folding Bluetooth keyboard that we have carried all this way and have not used yet….primarily because he is usually on his phone talking or texting everyone between NY and SF with FL, OH, and a few other states thrown in; he acts like such a teenager, I Just [...]


Day 67, 25 Aug 08 - Pierre to Wall

Some days just seem to start off on an odd note. I woke up before Stefan (as usual) in Pierre city park and was busy figuring out mileage and the halfway point when these 3 Indians (American Indians, not Indian Indians) came by. Stefan had been so tired the night before that he had decided to sleep on the [...]


Day 66, 24 Aug 08 - Fort Thompson to Pierre

We left Fort Thompson late due to wanting to catch the powerhouse tour at the dam. It was cancelled, so we headed on into the DakotaMart for some water (the tap water’s not that great) and more food. We’re getting used to stocking up a few days ahead of time out here because there’s not much else to be [...]


Day 64-65, 22-23 Aug 08 - Wind day in Woonsocket, SD, Woonsocket to Fort

Fri morning, we woke up to howling winds out of the West. Wunderground was calling for 45mph gusts and had been issuing wind warnings the last few days, but called for a easing of the winds the following day and a tailwind for Sat and Sunday, so we decided to call it a day and explore town. Woonsocket is [...]


Day 63, 20 Aug 08 - Salem, SD to Woonsocket, SD

We woke up at Ed and Edith’s house with the wind still blowing out of the South. I took some time trying to get pictures of their house as it was difficult showing all of their huge antennas….like I told Ed on the rdaio, I’ll probably end up in downtown Sioux Falls before I get the whole shot. Incidentally, [...]


Day 62, 19 Aug 08 - Sioux Falls, SD to Salem, SD

We got Joshua into Sioux falls on Monday night (I’m a little confused on the dates I put on my past journals, so just bear with me while I figure that out - the date listed on this subject is correct regardless of what hte last email said) and onto the Greyhound. Just to prove that nothing is as [...]

Day 59-61, 17-19 Aug 08 - Saint Peter, MN to Spirit Lake, IA, rest day,

If you are following closely, no you did not miss day 58; I made a mistake in my numbering back in La Crosse and just now caught and fixed it. We woke up in Saint Peter in a house built in the 1850s and owned by Trudi, a member of the family that owns Schell’s brewery, what some say is [...]


Day 57, 16 Aug 08 - Kenyon, MN to Saint Peter, MN

As we pulled out of Kenyon headed toward Faribault, we knew we were headed into prairies when we began seeing prairie dog towns in the cow pastures. At first we had no idea what they were as we didn’t expect them to be so densely packed and covered with grass but asking some friends in Saint Peter confirmed what [...]
