"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

Nice jobSo how many hours did it take you to drive from KC to Rapid City? I can't wait to drive out there and see that area!

Drive TimeI left KC in pouring rain at 8:10am Central, stopped for about half an hour in Sioux City for lunch and a fuel-up, stopped for a 10-minute fill & stretch in Kadoka, and about 45-minutes for dinner in Rapid City. Even with all that, I rolled into Hill City at exactly 7pm Mountain.
So that's 11:50 - ~1:30 in stops = about 10h 20m of driving. That's in the rain, and including all of the annoying I-29 construction zones in Iowa. I'm pretty sure Google called it 10h 22m, which explains why I love Google Maps!
