Minot to Minnesota
Left Minot a little before 8:00 am and headed east on roads not yet traveled by us. 200 miles of North Dakota farmland. Excellent road. Four lane divided highway with little traffic. Saw a lot more water than I expected. Lots of little lakes and marshlands. Maybe due to wet spring.
Along the way we passed through Rugby, ND. Rugby’s chief (only?) claim to fame is that it is the geographic center of North America. (GPS has since shown the spot to be several miles from there but what the heck. The Native Americans still proclaim their tourist trap to be the Four Corners even though it isn’t.)
On to Grand Forks and Sam’s Club for gas. Cheapest gas we have seen so far this trip.
House in Grand Forks
Then in to Minnesota and a stop at the visitor center to pick up several pounds of literature on see/do in the state.
