Before leaving Las Vegas we shopped for warm clothes, so we are at least somewhat equipped for the weather we are expecting. We have not been disappointed. Outside last night was down to 23 degrees. We have been making rapid transits from hotel to car to shops to wherever to avoid severe frostbite.
As set out in our itinery our first stop was the Department of Motor Vehicles where, after a couple of hitches we were able to obtain a driving license and ID card. We are now officially residents of South Dakota, so farewell Florida (though we are going back there soon).
Following this success we did some sightseeing by going to Sioux Falls, yes i know we were already in Sioux Falls, but surprise surprise there are actually water falls,called Sioux Falls in Sioux Falls. They are not huge, but very pretty as they were formed by a band of very hard pink quartzite, called Jasper. In fact this was the main reason for Sioux Falls existence. The stone was quarried and used for posh buildings.
