Day 44
June 29th
Monday
74 Miles
Gackle ND to Enderlin ND
A perfect day for riding, cool, overcast, and the best part a tail wind! I think we finally found the area in North Dakota that is fairly flat. We took advantage of the conditions to ride 74 miles today through North Dakota wetlands and farms. The original plan was to camp at Little Yellowstone, a pretty County Park with lots of trees close to the river. We arrived at Little Yellowstone by lunch, took a break then rode to Enderlin. There was no camping in Enderlin so we stayed at the Enderlin Inn, with spacious comfortable rooms.
We watched the news for the first time in almost two weeks. Turns out the haze we have had recently is from wildfires in Canada. The morning sun is red from the haze and it has kept the heat down most of the day.

Tall grass blowing in the wind
Spraying by plane, truck, tractor, etc...
lots of spraying in the fields from Montana through North Dakota
We never thought we would see gulls and pelicans in North Dakota
This area of wet lands is home to many different types of water fowl
