July 23, 2016 Check this State off your List! (Red Trail Campground, Medora ND)

We were ready to leave the RV park in Custer by 10 a.m..  It was a short 5 hour trip going into North Dakota.

We were directed by the local police this morning, detouring around the parade that started at 10.

There were lots of fields of "amber waves of grain" during today's route.  We saw corn, wheat, barley/oats, and a few fields of canola.  The wide open plains were surrounded by mesas and high hills.  There were fields filled with cattle, and some sheep.  We saw several pronghorn, and a few deer.

The west wind blew across the highway and our rigs the entire trip!

When we crossed from South Dakota into North Dakota, Marcella, and Mildred both exclaimed that this was the first trip into ND!

We are in Medora ND, just to the west of the entrance to the Theodore Roosevelt National Park.  There is a 36-mile scenic drive that we will enjoy tomorrow!
