We head north, to Minnesota

May 28, 2019

We only had a couple of hours to drive today, so we slept in and took our time getting out of the campground. We left Timberline about 11:45 am. We traveled east on I-80 for a little while, then north on I-35 into MN.

Traffic was light and we made pretty good time. Had some light rain, but nothing serious. We did see a lot of flooding, rivers overrunning their banks. Along the interstate the flooding is mostly farm lands. Some of these acres of rolling farm land has already been planted, we could see little green shoots sticking up out of the ground. But, a lot of this has not been planted yet. As wet as the ground is right now and as heavy as farm equipment is, its going to take a long time before the farmers can get out into these fields.

We spent the night in a very wet KOA just across the border in MN. Otherwise looked like a nice campground, but I didn't think it was quite up to KOA standards.
