Not a complete washout by far

I stayed overnight in a local fairground in Blue Earth, MN.  Upon leaving today, I noticed that the sky was a little darker than I expected.  I knew I had a few miles to put behind me and wanted to make way even though riding through a rain storm isn't the best feeling with a camper on your backside.  My biggest worry is water some how finding its way inside and having a bigger mess on arrival.  I am happy to say, it was dry.  The storm however seemed like it was just stuck over the highway probably a mile or so on both sides, the entire trip. 

After several hours of driving in the wet, I found my first destination, Falls Park in Sioux Falls, SD.  I kinda figured the falls were going to be fantastic but with the days rain fall, they were even better.  I mustered up the umbrella to weather the rain to witness these tremendous falls. 

The only thing I can compare it too is the Falls park in Greenville, SC.  But these had the beautiful red rocks and landscape to mold and shape the river's path.  If you ever get a chance to visit this area, this is a must see.
After departing Falls Park, I had another hour of driving to do and the rain finally eased off.  I arrived early afternoon to Lake Vermillion State Park in SD. 
This park is in the middle of nowhere and it mostly looks man made.  There were very few campers in the east campground where I stayed but I did have a spectacular sunset view!  Next up, the korny palace...
