Day 5 - Kearney To White Bear Lake

We got an early start and prepared to head off on our last leg of the trip, 573 miles to go. The weather report had a 30% chance of snow in Lincoln, Omaha, and then Des Moines. There were snow flurries but we were making great time.

About 55 miles outside of Des Moines we hit a full on snow storm. Visibility drops, the road has frozen over, and we start seeing more and more cars winding up in ditches. We average 40 mph until we get around the city and head north to St. Paul. Eventually we drive out of the snowstorm and it's smooth sailing to the Twin Cities.

The drive is over, now there is just the wedding!
