WEEK 2
DAY 9
Some days, you just know when you start out down the road what
kinda day it might be.
Other days, your just have to stop, take a picture, and smile.
| DAY 9 - SEPT 10 - SATURDAY We enjoyed our time in Minnesota. There is so much more we didn't get to see (besides the Crosby fire trucks), that we definitely should come back again some day. So, off we headed from our Clearwater, MN campground heading west on Route 23 thru some back roads to Route 12 and making our way over the South Dakota border to I-29, running north towards North Dakota. We got to Fargo, ND about lunch time and stopped at a cool place, recommended by one of the local PD, called "Sickies" Burgers & Brews. It was awesome! Good advice, ask the local FD or PD where to eat and you will not be disappointed. Back on the road, we headed north on I-29 again and crossed our northern border into Canada, and Manitoba (MB), our first new Province so far on the trip. I-29 continues into Canada as Route 75, which we took up towards Winnipeg, the Provincial capital of Manitoba, and then headed west on the Trans-Canada Highway, Route 1. We arrived at a campground outside of Winnipeg
