The falls are in the middle-ish part of town. The city of Sioux Falls has done a wonderful job with the park and I felt supremely jealous of all the running paths.

Sioux Falls also has the gorgeous St. Joseph's Cathedral. It sits on the side of a hill. I wish we had time to go inside, but we still had a lot of driving to do.


It is possible that one or two of you may get a very belated postcard from us from Sioux Falls. We always intend to send them, but then always forget. So it goes.
