Hi Nana, On I-29 approx 50 miles south of the ND/SD state line. There is a 'Coffee Cup' truck stop and just east of it is a small town named Summit. The weather is always different there. Blizzards are always worse, fog or ice or visibility is always worse, seriously. Once you get 5 miles any direction from there, the weather returns to normal. Thus many SD people have called that area the Summit Triangle. :-D Two years ago I spent over 4 hrs driving from Sioux Falls to Summit and ended up spending the night in a cafe booth with a lovely young lady I met; we didn't get dug out until 3:00 the following afternoon when all the truckers wanted to get moving. Visibility was still scary, but five miles west it cleared off (still lots of snow though) and I got home a couple hours later. BTW I've been to your Mill End Textiles---love it!
