Drove 184 miles in 3-1/2 hours Chilly but sunny, high of 70, Windy Drove with my driving instructor I-90 (aka Prairie Passage) for about an hour than north on route 75 (aka King International Highway, 414 miles in MN), then route 14 to I-29 to Watertown, SD. Passed by a big meatpacking plant in Worthington. Thought about stopping at Blue Mounds State Park and Pipestone National Park but they’re both closed because of COVID. Speed limit is 80 on the interstate-WOW!!!, people go whizzing by. Most of the day we enjoyed the scenery of corn, soybeans, hay bales, wind generators, horses, sheep, pretty blue and yellow wildflowers, brown cows, black cows, black and white cows, farms and silos. Very flat and windy on the prairie. We got to the Dakota Sioux Casino RV Park early, before 1:00, we had already made reservations and knew our site number so we set up and had lunch then went to the hotel/casino to check-in. The RV park is right next to the hotel/casino, very small, 14 sites, but
