We got a late start this morning after doing laundry. Fueled up and headed for the North Dakota border.

My father was raised near Ismay, Montana about 30 miles east of Miles City. I have been here once before but do not really remember much. Everything is so green this year with all the rain. It has stayed green much later than usual. This is great cattle country. Lots of grazing ground.

Just west of Baker, before leaving the Big Sky Country, we saw our first oil well in production. Just beyond these on the east side we saw a field of about 12 wind generating windmills. What a site that is. They turn so slow you would not even think they would produce any electricity.

Tonight's stop is in a nice little park in Bowman, North Dakota. Tomorrow we will cross the time zone at the Missouri River and be in South Dakota. We just clipped the edge of North Dakota. After spending nearly 2 weeks getting across Montana this is a fast change of states.

It is quite humid and running in the upper 80's and lower 90's. We are not usto all the humidity. But guess we better get usto it as it will only get more so.

See you next stop.
