The pressure of a blog... Ok, here goes.
We saw some pretty cool things yesterday. I drove so Scott could work. This allowed me to enjoy the rolling hills and farms in Wisconsin, the beautiful lakes in Minnesota, and the strong North Dakota headwind we were greeted with. Once we got past the lunchtime drama, it was smooth sailing. Open roads and pretty countryside.
We stayed at the Prairie Village Campground in Jamestown, ND. At first I thought I heard some banjos playing, but I was mistaken. We walked to the Prairie Village - some photos attached, including one of Sarah in the slammer, the girls posing under the world's largest buffalo, and the girls posing in front of the buffalo herd. The light one posing in the background is White Cloud. She is an albino. She also has an albino calf, photo attached. These are the only two known albino buffalo living in the world. They have a spiritual significance to Native Americans. As for the world's largest buffalo, Sarah thinks there is a truth in advertising violation. She feels she was led to believe it was real.
We took the scenic route (on purpose) to Minot to pick up our 1998 Eddie Bauer Edition Ford Expedition with 118,000 miles on it so I have something to cruise town in when we get to Crosby. We arrived in Williston around 4:30, just in time to plug the RV in at Williston State College and attend their 50th anniversary athletic banquet. Scott's mom and aunt joined us and his aunt drove the Expedition back to Crosby. As I write, the girls are sleeping, it is storming, and Scott is partying with old friends.
Tomorrow we head to Medora for the weekend. That is the last leg of this adventure.
I have to agree with Sarah, I thought the buffalo was going to be real, as well!!!
