"But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him."Hebrews 11:6

There's not much to say except for how beautiful the scenery is as we head westward! Many, many acres of wheat, corn, beans, etc. with silos, graineries, and farms with cattle dotting the landscape every now and then.
Vastness
We began seeing signs for the National Music Museum and thought that would be a very interesting place to visit.
We enjoyed looking at instruments whether old or unique. Many we didn't even know existed much less ever seen them. This museum is worthy of a post of its own at a later date.
We also saw something else we had never seen before......
In NC it's against the law to roll the city...
...but there were men getting paid to do it!!!
They had tarred all the cracks, and to keep the tar off the tires and on the road, they rolled toilet paper over it. They even had little contraptions somewhat like a paint roller so they didn't have to break their backs. : )
We enjoy getting out and stretching our legs when we get a chance. What better place than an overlook in South Dakota?! This one was a L O N G walk and we had a beautiful view of the Missouri River.
As soon as we crossed the river, the terrain became very hilly, but it was a unique "hilliness". : ) It would then become flat again and rotate between the two.
And then there's the maintenance... Actually, we were having a bit of transmission trouble. A fluid change at our next stop seems to have cured the problem. We praise the Lord for taking such good care of us!
As we got closer and closer to our destination, the gas stations became farther and farther apart. As we were traveling the last stretch of the way, we weren't too sure we were going to make it. We had passed the last gas station with 3/4 of a tank, but we found out the hard way that you fill up at each one or else. : ) One unusual aspect to us is that some places out here sell their premium gas 10 cents cheaper than their regular unleaded so you have to pay attention to the pricing. Again....we found out the hard way. : ) We did make it to the gas station, but by that time we were running on fumes. Sort of like the widow's barrel of oil in the Bible ~ a little went a long way! God always provides!

We are now in Dupree, SD...a little speck on the terrain of this huge state...at the first of our destinations ~ Eagle's Wing Baptist Church.
