Well, we made it through the night of storms alright. I think it was mostly rain. It was a cool morning but the sun was shining. Amelia and I rode our bikes around a bit while Daniel worked. We also sat outside the camper and enjoyed the cool morning breeze and people watching.
Shortly after lunch, Daniel came out and we went for a bike ride (nearly 4 miles) while Amelia fished.
Afterwards, he wanted to go for a ride. We drove over Gavin's Point Dam, across the Missouri River into Nebraska and then back into town (Yankton, back in SD) where we rode around to see more of the riverside area.
Amelia had seen that Yankton had an archery center where you could go and get a day pass so we drove over there. We were quite surprised and astonished to discover the instructor working with Amelia (and Daniel joined in) was Aida Roman, an Olympic Silver Medalist (2012 London). It was a pretty neat experience!
From there we drove back over to Vermillion (the city that we came through yesterday and home of University of South Dakota). We ate an early supper, walked around downtown and had ice cream before we headed back to our camper. I ended the night outside sipping hot tea as the sun faded away (9:30 PM!)
