North Dakota (Aug 24)

Not much cooking today. Winds were lighter and more to the side than behind me. North Dakota so far looks much prettier than eastern Montana: rolling green and gold hills with houses instead of trailers. Rolled into Minot at about 3:30 with absolutely no chance of getting a room. I guess they had some local flooding here too which wiped out some housing and put the hotels and motels in great demand. Was almost ready to pull the plug on the ride and fly back home because of the hurricane, but decided to wait for more info on its direction. I should be in Fargo by Saturday and I can decide then. Got out of Minot at 6:30 headed down Rt 52 and camped under a cell tower in Velva, ND.

Miles today: 124
Trip miles: 1413
