Day 2.5 - the all-nighter

backdated: 5/26/06

Nothing much to report... lots of driving.. all-night long... Unfortunately I've been too excited to sleep at all so now this morning I'm a sleep-deprived wreck. Oh well, that's what tonight's hotel stay is for.

Despite the long straight drive, we attempted to vary the revs and speed of the engine as much as possible, so as to properly break-in the engine. Being late at night the engine stayed nice and cool, too, as I checked it regularly whenver we stopped. Aside from the terrible roads here and there, it was a smooth ride.

As far as the sights.. well.. it was dark. But being south Minnesota and the middle of South Dakota, I doubt there was much that we missed.

Now on our way to Mount Rushmore!

Pictures: late-night dinner at Popeyes (nothin better!) and dawn somewhere around mid-South Dakota.
