Our next stop was Hutchinson, MN, to visit my aunt and uncle at Clay Coyote Pottery. We had a few relaxing days on the farm catching up with Tom and Betsy and resting up before the last leg of our road trip -- a whole month of camping in the west. Tom made us his signature sourdough pancakes for breakfast, we took a few walks through the corn fields and prairie, grilled out on the porch, browsed the gallery, and learned a little more about the pottery business. We left feeling refreshed and ready to tackle a couple of long-haul drives through to the Badlands.
