Day 2: Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Montana, Nebraska, and South Dakota

Sending from SD.

I didn't mention yesterday that the airport at MI gave us a vehicle to use to get into town for the night. The trouble came in the morning when we wasted about 20 minutes trying to find the airport. Then I (Bill) managed to tip over the cooler in the back of the airplane and spill water all over. A heck of a way to start the day but the rest of the day went well. We had good weather throughout the trip. We had a bit of a headwind for most of the trip until the end but still ended up in our destination at a good time. The only other "burp" in our plan was when we went to land at Sioux City airport in NE and it was closed for runway repairs. We were able to re-route to another airport nearby and continue on route. Suprised to see the severe flooding in NE & SD saw many flooded roads from the air. We got into our stop for the night at Pierre SD, they have CASINOS in car washes here!!!
