Chris had the opportunity to take a long weekend, so we took advantage of it by packing up the van and driving south. Our ultimate goal was Omaha, Nebraska but we make a pitstop in Sioux Falls, South Dakota on the way.
The weather didn't look promising on our first day, so we made the decision to stay in town and do a bit of exploring...
Sioux Falls is famous for their falls. Our lunch stop wasn't great but the park downtown didn't fail to disappoint!
Before we got too far away, we walked over to the bridge so we could see the Arc of Dreams...
Then we grabbed a flight of beer and some cookies from a local bakery before we walked up the hill to the Cathedral of St. Joseph...
But for dinner we went to The Barrel House for some delicious half-priced cocktails, mac & cheese and chislic (a regional snack of deep-fried or grilled chunks of meat). Yum!
We got to the campground in time to set up, play some games, watch the fireflies and wonder if it is just too hot and humid in the Midwest for car camping... :/
