Iowa and S. Dakota

The windmill is from Elkhorn IA, a small Danish community in NW IA had a Danish lunch of unpronounceable items. Also visited a winery. No more to be said.
The photo is of my cousin, Mary . She is a retired school teacher . She bought a IPhone when we arrived so we spent the best part of one DDT helping her do email,Bluetooth, texting and entering contacts.
Saw evidence of the Missouri River around Omaha. Places along the river are still flooded and no end in sight. Part of interstate 29 is still under water. Sad, my other cousinl lives in Dakota Dunes SD has been out of his house since Memorial Day and will not be able to get back until Thanksgiving

After Iowa it was on to Mitchell SD , home of the one and only corn palace. Yes the outside is covered with ears of corn. It is changed every year and is a big tourist attraction
Stopped in Wall drug and thought maybe she would like to go to Seattle with us but K put a end to that idea.
This is also the week of Sturgis SD. This is a scene in downtown Rapid City. More motorcycles again. Remember bikes on Beal St in Memphis
More pictures will follow.
