Day 19-Poplar to Williston

An exhilarating day. After a great time in Poplar with Abigail, the pastoral worker of the Roman Catholic Church who took us to the the 50th Annual Fort Kip Pow wow, we set out with a very brisk wind at our backs. The 71 miles whizzed by as we hit speeds of 35 mph for long stretches.



















Part of our exuberance came when we crossed into North Dakota, our fourth State. I've never been to North Dakota before. But if the warm welcome received from the folks of 1st Lutheran Church in Williston is any indication of the kind of people that live here, I will be back. No sooner had we arrived, than we were asked to be part of the end of the wedding reception and enjoy the refleshments. .

We were welcomed by Sharon and Bernie Gardener. We really had a great time. Thank you!

Distance: 71 miles
Overall Distance: 1273 miles
