The Land Of 10,000 Lakes

We then entered Minnesota, the last state we travelled in on Day 4 of our journey. The rock formations along the Missisippi River were breathtaking, as were the hills as we descended into a town 10 miles off I-90 (last picture). This marked the beginning of the slow, continous climb towards the high prairies of the West. My ears must have popped a half a dozen times between the river crossing and Albert Lea, the next major centre in this desolate section of Minnesota. There are no pictures of the majority of the 300+ miles of Southern Minnesota because it is sooo flat and boring!
