Some more friends I met while riding out here in the wide open. The usual,scratching there nose kept them around. As you can see in the photo there's no end to there pasture. I couldn't see a house either that might of been there homeAllot of open grazing for healthy ,happy animals. Theres plenty of land for everyone her in N.D.
As I was riding on 1806 west ( Lewis & Clark Trail)and was checking out the chickens on this prairy farm along the road and out ran Janet from the barn and invited me in for some coffee and doughnuts which I gladly accepted. Margie ( Mom) just got done filling her orders of fryers and broilers for the neighbors.She's 82 and going strong and I'm guessing from the good life on the farm. 35 she had ready by 9:30 with the help of Tim her son and her daughter, Janet, who drove up from Colorado to help out.
This is Lake Sakakwea a added bonus on my 200 route west. I was going to go farther south and connect to T.R. National Park till I talked to a couple at a Tasty Freeze I stopped at on my ride to Underwood They reccommended I see Garrison Dam. A 2 1/2 mile long earthen dam you can ride on built on the Missouri R. which is Lake Sakakwea. Before getting here I had been looking at the map and noticed how close the spelling Sakakwea was to Sacajawea . Well I was informed that it had gotten mispelled out west at some time. Sakakwea was added to the expedition about 10 miles form where I was having coffee and doughnuts.
