We're on our way

Our first night out was spent in Jamestown, North Dakota. There is a frontier town which displays a huge statue of a buffalo. Doug though it would be fun to make buffalo burgers given the size of the buffalo, we could eat a long time (if it were real).

We're traveling through North Dakota on our way to Montana. North Dakota has badlands, too. Who would have thought the badlands could be so beautiful and massive. We drove in it for four hours on our way to Fort Peck, MT.

We're spending the night in Fort Peck. This is where Doug's grandfather help build the dam and where his uncle managed the water flow for many years.

Along the way we saw many birds, antelope with their babies and pronghorn. Pronghorn are the fastest animal in North America. They can run as fast as 60 mph.
