Eau Claire or Menomonie for the truck pickup?

You'll be pleased to know that tomorrow's high of 17 is the warmest high temp in 3 weeks.

I have a friend in Salina, KS that we may stop and visit. Not 100 sure yet, I’ll call him in the morning and find out. 

Anything interesting on the way down?

I was wondering if you meant 1.5 hours West of MSP, not East.

Wave to Fearless on the way by.

Otherwise, not much to see this time of year. The Okoboji Winter Games were last weekend so you missed that. The bluffs ain't exactly the Rockies, but they'll be a welcome site after the flatness of SE MN and parts of NW IA.

yup, that's my route to Texas - too bad I'm out of town, I'd buy you a frosted schooner of beer and a Charlie Boy sammich at Miles Inn (Sioux City)
it's a good stop if you have time - 2622 Leech Ave, Sioux City, IA 51106

through the west side of Omaha to Lincoln - you'll be able to see the state capital building from I-80 north of Lincoln - the penis of the prairie
at York, NE, were you exit I-80 and go south on hwy 81, there's place called Chances "R" Restaurant & Lounge

cheapest fuel will be in Oklahoma City

Bugeater did you buy into these operations you've mention names/addresses enough??? You remind me of Peyton Manning after winning Super Bowl in 2016, repeatedly stating he was going to "drink a lot of Budweiser" to celebrate. He told CBS reporter Tracy Wolfson, "I'm going to drink a lot of Budweiser tonight, Tracy, I promise you that," and later mentioned, "I've had a few Budweisers and it's been a special night".

Turns out he had recently bought stakes in two Anheuser-Busch InBev distributorships in Louisiana :cheer:
