  • Day 3 of the Cross Country Adventure

    This morning was our first time in Wisconsin!

    The land of plentiful Cheese Food!

    We soon found our only scheduled actually-get-out-of-the-car-and-explore stop: The House On The Rock: a tourist trap known primarily for being a tourist trap in the middle of rural Wisconsin. Filled with weird and wonderful artefacts both authentic and fake.

    It was closed.

    Kerri was sad.

    image

    Then came our first time in Illonois!

    image

    And our first time in Indiana! (The driver is awake. He’s just blinking.)

    image

    We slept in Michigan, Indiana. Which was kind of confusing.

    We only drove 851km today.


  • Day 2 of the Cross Country Adventure

    This morning Kerri found the cookie that Steve gave Kerri to give to Matt. Thanks Steve!

    The cookies Matt’s parents gave us are much less powdery. Thanks Mom!.

    The bottom part of Saskatchewan is surprisingly bumpy.

    image

    Near the border we even had to drive uphill!

    image

    First time in North Dakota for both of us!

    image

    Then we got to the geographical center of North America. After a day and a half of driving Matt was looking for any excuse to get out of the car. But he still couldn’t be bothered to get out of the car for this.

    Next stop was the world’s largest buffalo.

    image

    Near the World’s Largest Buffalo there is a real albino buffalo. But apparently even albino buffalo are surprisingly good at hiding. The only white thing we could find in the field was this garbage.

    We missed the DC powerline crossing. We may have driven right under it but failed to notice.

    We drove through Fargo too, and didn’t notice.

    Then it was our first time in Minnesota!

    image

    We also missed the world’s largest hand rolled ball of twine rolled by a single man. Kerri is extremely disappointed. She thinks Matt did it on purpose.(I did not, there just weren’t any signs that indicated where to go to see it). Does that sound like the kind of thing that wouldn’t have signs to you?

    And that was the second 1014km!
