Trentham Stormchasers 2010 USA Roadtrip
Day 6: 27th
April, 2010: Today we spend the morning traipsing around Duluth and planned to
depart around midday and head into SW Minnesota via St Cloud. The winter chill lingered in
Duluth with morning temperatures in thre low 40's (F) despite bright sunshine. We bid
fairwell to Rich and Bette Koivisto and we wished them well in their new life in Arizona. No weather expectations today, just sunshine and pleasant travelling. We pass from Minnesota to South Dakota in the evening and overnight in Mitchell adjacent to the I90. |
