Sioux Falls 2010
Posted by OurVolvo.com on Mar 8, 2010 in 1993 Volvo 940
So I’m on the way back to Nebraska from Minnesota and I think to myself, “self”. I should take the time to go by Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It’s only like an hour out of the way. So I plug in the destination on my trusty TomTom GPS and off I go. I arrive to Sioux Falls and I click on the Points of Interest (POI) near me and select that I want to go to the Sioux Falls Park. So it brings me toward downtown, and this I am thinking is a good thing, and then I go a bit farther down some back streets. I cross by a old depot station, a mission outreach building. I feel as if I’m in the not so good area of town and then I see a sign. ”Sioux Falls Park”. Okay but I don’t see any falls. I just see a fee picnic tables, a slide, and some swings. I’m thinking to myself this can’t be the great Sioux Falls of South Dakota. But for you fellow travelers, just a side note that their is a small park right next the the big one. So don’t turn around. Just keep going and you will see the Falls. However it’s not recommended to see them in the winter as the falls are somewhat FROZEN. Yea. Oh well. But at least I can say that I have been to the Falls. And if you are expecting anything like the Niagara Falls, don’t get your hopes up. But it is a must see.

The Big 250
Posted by OurVolvo.com on Mar 3, 2010 in 1993 Volvo 940
Today I turned the big 250. 250,000 miles that is. Can you believe it? I feel as young as I did the day I came off the assembly line. Well I guess not that young, but as young as one can with so many miles. And I’m still purring like a little kitten. I am very fortunate because with these miles have gone many places. I’ve been everywhere man. I’ve been to California man. Been to Mississippi, to Florida, to Washington, to Chicago. I’ve been stuck in the great 2009 blizzard of South Dakota, seen the Grand Canyon, the Hoover Dam, the Space Needle and Vegas Baby just to mention a few. I am looking forward to many more to come.
Waiting to be driven again …

It gets awful lonely here in the States waiting to be driven. But it’s okay. I will wait patiently on my owners to return from Europe. It shouldn’t be much longer. . . .
