Are we there yet?

Finally, after two weeks, four countries (Canada, Russia, USA, and Wisconsin -- which is like a whole different country), and enough frequent flyer miles to earn Fran and I a free roundtrip on the Space Shuttle Discovery, we arrived in South Dakota Friday night ... needing a vacation to recover from these last 2.5 weeks.

I've posted some photos from our trip from N.Y. to S.D., including photos of a sunset in Chicago, Shreve on Lake Michigan, the family in the Badlands, the Ambassador Bridge between Canada and Detroit, and one of the 10,000 lakes in Minnesota.

Thank goodness we only have to make this trip once. And in one direction.
