[Rhodes22-list] I Didn't Get Voted Off The Island

[Roger Pihlaja]

Herb,

Sioux Falls is in south eastern South Dakota right on I-90 near the
intersection of the South Dakota, Iowa, and Minnesota state lines.  I do not
think it is anybody's idea of a good place to own a boat.  We're taking
Great Plains here!

Fortunately, the job is in Caro, MI, which is actually closer to Lake Huron
than where I live now.
