DAY2

Not a drop of rain today, just blue skies and more Missouri back roads. The original plan today was to take the interstate all the way to Kansas city, but we ended up going cross country instead, bypassing St Louis altogether. We traversed almost the entire state off the beaten path and got to experience some really nice country. Tractor dealers are about as numerous as car dealers. We passed through Mark Twain National Forest, through towns with names like Cuba , Vienna, California, and Knob Noster.
We put down a little over 400 miles today with a total of about 860 (I think). We are half way to Rapid City. Tomorrow we'll be into the high plains of Northern Nebraska.
