We are in a new state for both of us. Neither of us have ever been in North Dakota. We are in a small town called Williston, ND. We are in the least expensive motel we have stayed at yet. No, I think it's the nicest one in town!! Oh well, we are only here one night.
This Hi Line, highway 2, is a great little road to ride. There are lots of little towns along the way. And friends, when I say little, I mean little!!!
We discussed making a left turn and going into Canada but decided we were having too much fun on the Hi Line.
We are just barely over the border of Montana/North Dakota so we have lots of driving to do to get across ND yet. We plan to go to Fargo, then cut south to Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
This area is known for agriculture of course, and oil. Yes, oil. Who knew?
Lots of road kill for those of you who are interested in such things. Today we saw more dead critters on the road than I think I've seen in my entire life. Among the numbers were skunks, oppossum(s?), dogs, cats, deer, porcupines and one that I couldn't figure out.
Everything in eastern Montana was one Indian Reservation or another. Lots of casinos, large and small. Last night at the restaurant, we had dinner with cowboys and indians !!
We are both feeling good and very refreshed after our down time in Havre. Spending the extra day there made a big difference.
Today was also the first day I did all the driving. Wayne has been doing most of it but today was my turn!
Tomorrow can't come soon enough, I think Wayne is really anxious to leave the thriving metropolis of Williston, North Dakota and I think I agree.
More later........
