part 5: North Dakota (original) (raw)

North Dakota had a lot fewer people and tourist stuff, but here's what there was

North Dakota was the fiftieth state my Mom has visited, and the original purpose for the trip

Amidon, with a population of 26, is the smallest county seat in the US (Slope County). Here is their police car (it says "police" on the other side)

we ate dinner at a picnic shelter on the edge of Painted Canyon, in Theodore Roosevelt NP, again pictures don't really capture how incredible it is

North Dakota is home to a lot of "worlds largests" including the worlds largest holstein cow and worlds largest steel raodside sculpture

One thing in ND that i know is a real world's largest is the worlds tallest manmade structure, the TV mast near Blanchard, which will be the tallest until the Burj Dubai is completed, so its good we saw it this year

ok, next:into Canada
