Day 18, Eastern ND to Duluth


Day 18, Wednesday 6/27 –Bottineau ND to Duluth MN (via International Falls), 527 miles/6546 ttl

Northern – eastern North Dakota is not experiencing the oil boom. The soil is black, rock free and very rich.  The fields are flat and huge and there is water everywhere – unlike Montana. There are miles and miles of yellow canola.

Minnesota seemed familiar – a lot like NY with tree lined roads, 55 mph speed limits and very muggy temps.  55 mph seems like crawling after running 65 to 70 (on 2 lane roads) throughout the west.
