Omaha, NE to Fargo, ND

Some encouragement today.  Dorothy was very weak this morning but brightened in the afternoon.  She had her first real meal since December 20.  However, our day was a little long (almost 700 kms).  There are fewer cities in this part of world.
Dorothy had her first real meal in over two weeks at the
Cracker Barrel restaurant in Sioux Falls, SD
After our initial encounter with Cracker Barrel restaurants, in Indiana, when we didn't quite know what to make of them - they have become something of a favourite - especially on this drive home.  We found a few menu items that Dorothy could tolerate a little of, and that menu is consistent from place to place.  We have been dining at Cracker Barrel almost exclusively the past week (except, of course, for our breakfasts at Holiday Inn Express).  It was disappointing that this restaurant, where Dorothy enjoyed here meal, will be the last Cracker Barrel we encounter on this trip.
Our first sight of snow in over two weeks (it seems much longer) was this morning in Omaha, NE
Later, there was much more snow - here we are heading north in South Dakota???
It is nice to be back in farming country.
Greetings from the cockpit of Pontiac Montana SV6
Thanks to all our friends for the support and prayers.
