The 50th State


We hated to say goodbye to daily coffee breaks at Caribou (I didn’t realize, until our visit, that the company originated in Minnesota) but we packed up and moved on to a brand new state for both of us. On the USA map, that many RVers add stickers to as they travel, North Dakota is sometimes referred to as “the 50th state” because it is the last state visited. Our camp host, in Minnesota,  joked, when he found out we were headed in this direction, that there were only two trees so hopefully, our campsite would be under one of them. This is a Great Plains State, but the first campground we stopped at, Turtle River State Park, has beautiful cottonwoods and varied topography. We have a great campsite with not only trees, but at nightfall, on our first night here, a visiting wild MINK!

Where did that mink go?
