I spent the entirety of Saturday wandering throughout the gorgeous city of Sioux Falls. Found the falls themselves - unbelievably intriguing. The stone is bright orange, and smoothed over time, the water running full power throughout. I could have stayed all day there (and almost did) but the other side of town beckoned. Wandering all the way to Terrace Garden I found the Japanese Gardens and also realized that yet another camera of mine is failing. Perhaps the world is trying to teach me something about just enjoying the moment? Fair Enough. My memory snatched up as much of the beauty in Sioux Falls as humanly possible.
Evening: great food and art at Michelle's (teeny cafe with live music outside on the street, right downtown) and onward toward Nutty's North, to see the promised Ringo Starchild perform. The club had a pretty chill atmosphere and I hung out, watching the opener bands. Before long, Adam came into the picture. He was a really sweet guy, keeping me company with good conversation during the performances. His buddies/housemates play for The Sewer Rats and they seemed like a really interesting group of guys. After watching the "famed" Ringo Starchild, I ended up heading back over to Adam's place with some of his friends (you rock: Tom, Wyatt, Dan, Mike-Fancy). And from there the plan was hatched... albeit slightly inebriated, Adam thought it would be a fantastic time to join me on my adventure. We'll see what the morning decides....
