We made it to Pratt, KS last night and found a great place with rooms and RV hookups. It has a restaurant, pool, wifi, cable and laundry on site. We will be staying here for a while. It will be 88° here today.

On the Road
We made it to O’Neill, NE. We had a big delay for permits in Aberdeen, SD then had a detour about 80 miles out of the way. We went thru some scenic hilly areas in South Dakota towards the end. We were down to 20 mph with the semi. We should make it to Kansas today.
…and We’re Off!
We are off on our custom combining adventure! Sometimes it seems everything takes longer than it should and that was certainly the case when we were trying to leave. There was so much to get loaded, fixed, packed, and finished. It seems every vehicle had wiring issues to be corrected. Of course, there are also other things that just need to be done before we could leave. We have been extremely busy and put in a lot of long days the weeks before we could leave.
Our first day we got going late and only made it to Jamestown, ND. We stopped in Devils Lake, ND for supper and fuel. The worst roads were on HWY 57 near Devils Lake, ND as they have been raising the roads for years due to the rising lake level. When we arrived in Jamestown, ND the hotels had little vacancy but we did find a mom & pop type hotel which had rooms and allowed us to plug in our camper – very hospitable people!
