We left the beautiful Black Hills and headed east and South Dakota soon took on the flat prairie look. We loved our RV Park in Salem and took a few pictures of the little town of Salem, population about 1100.
Our spot. It rained quite a bit while we were there.
Swimming pool and a nice play area for the kids
Downtown Salem. Pretty wild!
War memorial by a school
Light’s not good but we thought this was an impressive building
With time on their hands, they paint the fronts of their businesses
Flat land as far as the eye can see… and corn fields
Oh, wow, more corn. Highest thing around is an occasional silo
And the town water tower
Entrance to the RV Park
We left Salem, SD and drove east into Iowa. Our next stop was Kellogg, IA. We got there just after they had received more than an inch of rain. We had to set up the RV in a lake as the rain had puddled so bad and we got our feet wet. I couldn’t send anyone a postcard from Salem or Kellogg because there were no postcards to send. Actually, nothing of any interest for anyone to take a postcard picture of. We couldn’t even find the town of Kellogg. We saw a sign welcoming us but no town. We didn’t take any pictures while in Kellogg either and were glad when it was time to leave there. At lease the lake the RV was setting in had finally dried a little. We saw thousands of fields of corn. Many more silos and barns and then more corn fields. It was pretty and green but very boring as we made our way across South Dakota and Iowa. We were glad to get to Keokuk, Iowa where we finally stopped. It’s nice to see something other than corn fields. Now we see the Mississippi River.
