Today we traveled 310 miles from Aberdeen SD to Minot ND, our last day in the US for a while. The weather has been partly cloudy and cool, which is refreshing. Tonight's low at the Mellow Moose Campground should be in the high 40's!
Favorite city/town name: Edgeley, ND
Another favorite: Anamoose, ND
Mike's favorite road sign:
North Dakota is known for a few specialty food items. First is Knoephla Soup: A rich, creamy, and thick comfort food loaded with potatoes and small, chewy dumplings (knoephla). Second is Fleischkuechle: A savory, deep-fried pastry filled with seasoned ground meat. Third is Kuchen: The official state dessert. It is a sweet, traditional German yeast dough pastry with various fruit or custard fillings. We went in search of all three and found them at Kroll's Diner in Minot. They also had caramel rolls!
Favorite bird(s) today: Yellow headed blackbird, ring-necked pheasant, white pelican
