Day 7 (cont.)

We have arrived at the Warners where we finally  enjoyed a home cooked meal and relaxed before our last day tomorrow. Tomorrow will be a 9-10 hour trek back to Eastern to complete the road trip in 8 days! 2 shorter than we had planned.

 Will post on the road and when we arrive tomorrow!

On the way to the Warners for the night, then we make our 9 hour treck to Eastern tomorrow in order to bust up some freshmen in the scrimmage.

Day 6 (Cont.)

We have resided in a hotel in the Chicago suburbs; the Rockford Days Inn. Tomorrow we plan to spend the morning and afternoon in the city, then head down to Indianapolis (3-4 hours) to spend our last night of the trip with the Warners!

Day 6.

Last night we stayed in a hotel in Soiux Falls, South Dakota.  Today, starting in South Dakota, we then moved through southern Minnesota and crossed the Mississippi River into Wisconsin.

As of now we're driving through Wisconsin on our way to the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois to stay for the night. The weather around our campsite was rainy again so we figured we should just keep on riding. By getting to Chicago tonight, we will shave off another day and end up getting to Eastern Friday evening. We'll get to help the team move in freshmen on Saturday morning.

Day 5

I'm Today we slept in, not leaving the hotel until checkout at 11. From there we went down to Mount Rushmore, and back up to rapid city to see the movie Straight out of Compton. It is 7:30 now and we still have an hour drive to our campsite. Depending on weather we will ether stop there or continue to where there is no rain.

Day 4.

Today we had a 5 hour drive from tie hack to Devils tower.........

At this moment in posting the blog, we were hit with a thunder and lightning storm. Luckily, all of our clothes and camping gear was packed up, but our campsite was turned into a swamp, leading us to have to evacuate the campsite or sleep in a puddle. 

After packing up our gear we made our way to Belle Fource SD, where we are staying at "Americas inn". We plan to take our time here seeing as it is very comfortable. Leaving for Mount Rushmore tomorrow.

Here are some photos from Devils tower.
