What I remember most about Sioux Falls is the bum info I got 3 months ago from the host at the Cracker Barrel restaurant as we were headed south on I-29......I asked about the flood closures down the road and he told me "No biggie at all - 15 minute detour at most".

Right....it ended up being four extra hours and 200 extra miles.

We got nailed by that as well a couple months ago. Coming out of Sioux falls we were headed down to Louisville and were going to go Omaha, Kansas City, St. Louis, Louiville. Instead we had to turn off before Omaha and go Des Moines, Davenport, Pioria, Indianapolis Louiville.

Interestingly, as we were approaching Omaha at night there were barriers along 29 and the water was about 2 feet higher than the road surface.

You were not misled. The person who gave you the info simply assumed that you would be driving at normal SD speeds.

That was probably a yute, a mature native would have told you “you can’t get there from here”.
