424 miles today, Pierre SD to Owatonna MN (about 60 miles south of Minneapolis).  Good trip, except that along the way we listened to MSU's truly poor football performance in its game with Nortwestern, which we lost!  Very disappointing!  This could be a very poor season of football for the Spartans.
To clarify my comment about having experienced three hotel evacuations because of fire alarms...one was last night and the other two were over the period of about 15-20 years.  They were not all on this trip, thank goodness.
Tomorrow we plan to head to Rhinelander, Wisconsin, a town we've been to many times while doing research at the Enterprise Radiation Site in the local forest.
We expect some rain but at least there's no forecast of snow...as was the case in northern Minnesota.
Take care all!
