COUNCIL BLUFFS, IOWA TO FARGO, NORTH DAKOTA





We left Council Bluffs this morning in more bright sunshine. With a view of Omaha across the Missouri River.


There is nothing quite like driving through the "Bible Belt", on a religious holiday.  "You have the roads all to yourself". 
We were an hour into our journey before we saw the first trace of snow in a sheltered area protected from the sun.  That will not last long. 
 
But, on the other hand.  By the time we got half way up South Dakota there was a lot more snow around. 
And in Northern South Dakota ran into lots of snow everywhere you looked. 
Then we entered North Dakota.  Of course there is still lots of snow in North Dakota, and there will be just as much, or more, in Manitoba when we get there. 
 
And as I watch the snow covered fence posts whizz by, on our way to Fargo.  I can't help but wonder, "Which one has that briefcase full of cash buried beside it?"       Mmmmmmmmm!!
 
 
 
 WE WILL BE HOME BY NOON TOMORROW.
