Elkton, SD
Staying with family in a nice rural environment.
Lots of corn/bean harvest activity going on around us.
Lake Hendricks, SD/MN
Lovely lakeside family accommodation and a USA small town feel just across the border.
We had a fun family reunion here.
Granite Falls, MN
Lisa and I (not winners) visited the Prairie’s Edge Casino with Crystal (big winner).
Nice facility.
Lots of slots and reasonable food at cheap prices.
Try the chilli dog!
Choice of smoking and non smoking gambling rooms which is a big plus. So many casinos are tobacco smoke polluted.
Lowville, MN
Family farm corn harvest.
My YouTube video of harvest here.
Brookings, SD.
Great university town (SDSU) with lots of restaurants, bars, cafes and boutique shopping.
Unfortunately I had to visit the ER at the Brookings Health System.
I was extremely well and efficiently looked after.
The cost however was the complete opposite to our socialised medicine system in Australia.
Thank goodness for travel insurance.
Never go overseas, especially to the USA, without it.
Dell Rapids, SD.
High School football (NFL) game.
My short YouTube video here.
Places to eat/drink in Brookings, Lake Hendricks and Elkton.

Good coffee at Cottonwood Bistro, Brookings.
BBQ pulled pork sandwiches at Backyard BBQ, Brookings.
Best ham and cheese omelette at Irene’s Cafe, Lake Hendricks.
