Jersey City to Seattle Roadtrip
Day 3 – Tuesday, October 3

Third day we proceeded to another long day of driving without excursions. We drove through the remaining parts of Illinois and continued on through Wisconsin, Minnesota and into South Dakota. Someone once said that a person who has never seen American prairie does not now what vastness is. During our long drive throughout the day we enjoyed amazing views of endless prairie checkered with flower filled meadows and golden fields. Late in the evening, just after crossing into South Dakota we stopped for the night. Unfortunately, the hotel in question did not allow dogs so we had to smuggle Kiki because it was too cold to sleep in the car, but we were lucky and she was well behaved to our little scheme was not discovered.
