Day 18 of BoxsterRoadTrip was pretty much a day of getting from here to there.
We left the lovely Foote Creek Bed & Breakfast after a wonderful breakfast and delightful conversation with the Innkeepers. This Inn is a gem, even with the gravel road (which would be no trouble in almost any car but a Porsche – but we did it and it was worth it!!!). If you are ever in the Aberdeen area of South Dakota or, if you are a pheasant hunter, this is the place to stay.
We got an early start and stuck to state highways and county roads the entire trip from South Dakota, into North Dakota, and on to Minnesota. The morning was overcast and foggy, so no photos. The roads almost all day were straight and pretty flat and, well, boring. Lots of corn fields. And then more corn fields.
We decided to go “light” for lunch, so we stopped at a little restaurant called “Don’s Café” in Morris, Minnesota and – uh oh – they make real milk shakes in just about any and every flavor you can imagine. Steve sweet talked the waitress into making him two “half” milk shakes because he couldn’t decide between English Toffee and Butter Rum. So he had both. Jo had chocolate. So much for “light”.
We arrived in Minneapolis just in time to experience commute traffic! We had a lovely dinner at an Italian restaurant and ended the day at an Airbnb called “Craftsman Suite on the Mississippi “, which is a very nice home close to downtown and close to the river. We are looking forward to exploring tomorrow.
The journey continues . . .
