Just crossed the Red River into Minnesota (East Grand Forks). Last night and tonight we are staying in the same campgrounds we did going out West. Not that we loved them so much; there wasn't much to choose from. Will stay tomorrow night in Wisconsin and arrive home on Saturday. The prairie of Montana and North Dakota is pretty but it does get old after a while! Flooding is still a problem in North Dakota, especially around Minot. Montana looked to be pretty dried up, but North Dakota still has lakes where there shouldn't be any. You can see where the farmers couldn't plant because it was too wet. It looks like they tried to make the best of it though; they planted wheat around the puddles where they could. Sorry, no pictures.
Comments from Eldon: Driving today was boring. Once you've seen the prairie, it all looks alike. It might never end........I'm still sad about going home, but I guess all good things come to an end. I'll work on planning the next trip now.
Comments from Larry: All right already - let's get home.
