It's Gonna Be A Great Day For Racing!
It's 6:00 a.m in Sioux Falls and there is not a cloud in the sky, the first clear morning in what seems like forever. Temperatures are supposed to be only in the mid-80's; perfect for solar racing.
Today we'll head to a check point in Fargo, ND, and then on to Winnipeg, over 500 miles away. We won't make that mark in one day, but we hope to say "Hi!" to some of the folks in Canby, Minnesota we met along the way in 2005. Prairie Home Companion fans (Public Radio KMST, Saturdays at 5:00 p.m., Sundays at noon) will be thrilled to know we'll pass the huge statue of a lutefisk in Madison, Minnesota, the Lutefisk Capitol of the World. Maybe we'll have time to see what Minnesotans call Paul Bunyan's anchor nearby. To quote a local from 2005's trip, "its just a big bunch of rocks, don't ya know, but dat's what we tell da kids!".

Be sure to check out Paul Bunyan's boat anchor in Ortonville!! (Some communities went a little nuts with the Bunyan thing.)
