| Sioux Falls Fairground |
Miles traveled: 598 miles
Time spent driving: 9 hours
States passed: Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, South Dakota
Tolls paid: Not as many as yesterday..but still too many
Tanks of gas: 2
Traffic violations: 1 (I was behind the wheel, details to follow)
Today we...
- Both of us expressed an interest in finding a dairy farm in Wisconsin so we could milk a cow. No farm was found.
- We ate at a diner called the Hearty Platter. My pancake combo meal was $4.99.
- I freaked at the random visual/audio mashup created as we pulled out of a Minnesota gas station and "Gangsta's Paradise" starting playing on the radio.
- I got pulled over. Yes, details to follow. Yes, it ends up being a good story, not funny as my "Remember that one time in Utah I cussed at a cop and blamed a romance novel for my speeding and still got off with a warning" story from my 08 road trip but this story should be bizarrely entertaining.
- We spent 4th of July at Sioux Falls' fairgrounds listening to the town's municipal band, watching a circus act and fireworks. I wanted a snow cone but was not able to get a snow cone
- While the fireworks were short, they were right in our faces. Like, right in our faces. It has been decided this is the closest we have ever been to fireworks.
- I still want a snow cone. Words cannot express how much I want a snow cone.

Why no sno cone?
Cause it was too hard to get out of the stands. I still want a snow cone. I am so sad. Still. Tears. Flowing.
