Don't Think Twice, It's All Right


And just like that, our time in South Dakota was finished. We did take a last drive over streets covered in snow to say goodbye to Mr. Bendo, check out the buffaloes that greeted us upon our arrival, to ponder the frozen eponymous falls of Sioux Falls, to ascertain if David (the statue) had decided to dress in layers, to yell one last time at the Prairie View Prevention people,  and of course, to share the atmosphere and drink another coffee at Queen City. We will be back in a few weeks to get the other car and finish vacating our home here, but this is the moment that life changes. After that we will be like pheasants among the corn rows: present without really being visible.

We came to South Dakota with a mission (work related for Eva) and a goal. The goal was to use the move to shake up the comfortable status quo and to stimulate us to grab a bit more from our lives. We did that. 


Our plans at this point don't extend much beyond the road map above. Hopefully, after a short run near the tri-state marker of Nebraska, Kansas & Missouri, we will be sitting in a Vegan bakery/coffee shop in Kansas City trying out Google Fiber's 1gigabyte/second internet speeds.

Now in your best Dylan Voice sing: 
Where we're bound, We can’t tell ....fare thee well
