We set off for Sioux Falls, South Dakota for a WEDDING of a former co-worker. We left at 8 AM for our adventure. We didn't have to be in Sioux Falls until Saturday afternoon, so we decided to take a "sort of" vacation.
Now.....you might be asking what a "sort of" vacation is? Louise and I have been on many vacations over the years with our families. I am sure you know how it goes. You leave and then arrive at the location. Along the way, you may see a sign that says "World's Largest Ball of Twine is 5 miles to the right".......but nope.....we are on a schedule and if we start taking detours our entire schedule will be thrown off.
So we started the zig zag across Iowa......I should mention here that a typical drive from our town to Sioux Falls should take the normal traveler approximately 7....that is seven.....hours.
I will make the final reveal of how many hours our journey took us at the end of this mini series.
Our first stop on our trip took us to a small town north of Cedar Rapids, along Interstate 380, called Brandon. Brandon is the home of "Iowa's Largest Frying Pan".
Stella, Thelma and Louise |
This was the only part of the adventure that we had a guest photographer with us....the Man Child.
yes...the pan was hot. |
He was being his typical smarty self and continued to take photos of us as we tried to get out of the pan......
......that is quite a step down....
I think you can see in this picture that Louise is suspicious of what the Man Child is up to.
Louise gets down very gracefully with a little help from her friends.
And then we are shown how it is supposed to be done....
Great job Stella!
I am sure you can guess the pun coming now......
We got out of the frying pan and.....
the Man Child was thrown into the fire!
