Bismarck, North Dakota, Or Bust!

Thunderstorms with gusting winds forced us to stop in Terry, Montana yesterday.

Having stopped short of our
intended destination yesterday...

...we are determined to drive

to Bismarck, North Dakota

today.

We drive past irrigated
fields.

It's another hot day today

with an expected high of

92 degrees Fahrenheit.

Cattle graze on the
plains.

We are welcomed to

North Dakota.

Visitor Center







I am amazed at how green it is here.  Crossing a state line was like crossing into technicolor.

We pass Home on the Range

I have to research these
stacked geological
formations.

A glimpse of the northern end of the Badlands.

The boulders seem to

have fractured & then

tumbled to the ground.

Oil extraction & farming go

together in North Dakota.

We are traveling through the

Little Missouri Grassland.

Salem Sue, the world's largest
Holstein Cow, can be seen
from miles away.

We cross the Missouri River.

And enter Bismarck.

Destination achieved!
