No wonder I\u2019m tired I drove 567 miles today, walmart to walmart, with a stop at the Mississippi River headwaters in Minnesota. That\u2019s something that was on my list for a while. It would have been nice to stay a while but for being in the middle of nowhere it was kinda busy.<\/p>\n
We plan to go back when we can spend a few weeks in the area I\u2019m sure bigfoot lives in the area, thousands acres of woods and lakes. We can\u2019t wait to get back and do some exploring.<\/p>\n
This morning we pulled out of the Walmart in Mason City, IA around 6:15 in a misty fog and turned north to find the headwaters of the Mississippi River. It was a good chunk of driving, probably a couple hundred miles total, but it was really pretty country. From there we turned back south and hit the intestate near Fargo, ND.<\/p>\n
Note to self: don\u2019t drive through Fargo ND at 5:00-5:30 in the afternoon. We never did slow down much but 3 lanes of fast moving traffic is something I can do without.<\/p>\n
I gotta say 100 miles, so far, of super smooth concrete expressway has been a pleasure to drive on. I know of several states that could use a lesson from whoever poured the concrete.<\/p>\n
We\u2019re staying in parking lots so we can travel earlier or drive later that I feel comfortable with doing when staying in campgrounds. We\u2019re also more comfortable understanding the battery system on the little guy.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
