Williston, ND - Friday, June 23

Glasgow, MT - June 20.
Nice day - High temp of 70. West wind of 15 - 30 mph: mostly a tail wind. Seeing less wheat, more cattle, and fewer prairie Dogs. Stopped at the Sleeping Buffalo. This is a sacred place for the Indians, and was kind of special.

Wolf Point, MT - June 21
We have been mostly in Indian Reservations for the past two days, but they are behind us now. Linda and I arrived at the rather dumpy Rancho campground first, and set up our tents. Then Andy arrived and found that the price had increased to $12 per tent ($72 for 6 people): he tried to negotiate a deal and the manager was very rude, so we packed up our tents and moved on the the municipal park and swimming pool. The park was pretty nice, but it was late when we arrived, so we had Subway sandwiches and watched a Little League baseball game. There were a lot of kids in the park. The Indian kids were very outgoing and asked all sorts of questions. Twice they asked us for money, but when we said no, they did not pester us about it. The park was about a mile from the railroad - we heard the whistles, but not the train wheels. Again, we had a 15 - 20 mph tailwind. We also went through about 5 miles of road construction, where we rode on gravel. The mountains are completely gone. Until now, there has always been a small range either to the north or south.

Culbertson, MT - June 22.
We saw a new kind of rock formation today. Sandstone worn into interesting shapes and colors. Got some nice pictures. We got off of US-2 for most of the day, and had very little traffic. We had to wait about 20 minutes for a train which had stopped. According to the locals, this is common. Had a light tailwind. Stayed at the municipal park, and showered at the municipal pool which was located about 7 blocks away. The park had a shelter, which is good because it rained in the evening and at night.

Williston, ND - June 23.
Had a headwind today. Camping at the municipal park which is really nice; it has a recreation building with nice showers, hot tub, and sauna. We are going to the county fair tonight to have supper.
