Sept 12 Day Off in Minot

DAY Thirty-four Minot ND Day Off
Sept 12/07 Wednesday D 16 km
Well today was spent shopping for fleece blankets[looked for wool but I guess that’s too old fashioned] and going to the bike shop for chain wax and extra tube. That said we have only had one slow leak for me and 2 for Ken and no real flats that needed immediate changes, but it doesn’t hurt to carry a new tube. Biked about the town. Much nicer than I remember it 25 years ago in a snow storm moving back from New Jersey! All yards are neat, old war time houses restored and renowed, some new houses. Montana was Menonite and North Dakota seems to be Lutheran. Lots of references to Norwegians here.

Wild turkeys in camp! Real ones!

Great veggie food cooked by moi!

Nice people. The manager is here until end of Oct, then off to Arizona until April.
Nice to get clothes washed too!
