Day 24 – Sunday, May 30

74.2 miles, 17.8 mph, Odometer: 1678 – Fort Ransom State Park, ND to Barnesville, MN

KEVIN – Straight east with a tail wind. I meant to stop to eat but nothing presented and I had a tail wind. I ate lunch at DQ in Barnesville, since the Eagle Cafe that Suzi had found online with a 4 star rating was “For Sale.” I entered Minnesota on a back road. No signs marked the state line. I would not have known except that Siri in my pocket said, “Welcome to Minnesota.” (Correction: It was Karen Jacobsen, the voice of Google Maps.) I took this photo of a tidy Minnesota farm.

Suzi met me at Walker Park Campground near Barnesville and I set up the tandem for tomorrow. Our grandniece, Elizabeth’s plane was delayed. She will now arrive in Fargo at ~10 pm.

SUZI – Drove to Fargo, ND to meet Elizabeth’s plane. Filled the gas and propane tanks, then parked at the airport viewing area to write the blog while waiting. Once we learned about the flight delay, I drove the half hour down to camp. Having spent part of yesterday on a gravel road, the trailer, truck and bikes all needed some cleaning. We drove into summer today and Wagner Park was full of campers playing cornhole and such. The refrigerator fruit drawer must now be designated for chocolate.

Photos from my morning drive – green shoots in the fields; fog; living snow fence.

One thought on “Day 24 – Sunday, May 30

  1. I had been following this on my phone’s email but very difficult to get the pictures up. Finally went on-line to the actual blog which has the pictures automatically load and coordinated with the text. I read through it all from the beginning and it was really great. I have to say you guys, and by that I mostly mean Suzi, are doing a wonderful job with it and that its very well written and the pictures are great. Keep it up!
