The weather channel had us worried, we got an early start pulling over 60 klms Down the road for gas and breakfast. Two old rednecks had fun with us telling us to get ready for 2 days of rain, thunder, lightning and high winds. We left in a hurry, before we went 10 klms down the road we heard the loud rumble over the engine noise and the sky lit up and it poured. I was wet to my underwear within minutes, I couldn't see; we pulled to the side of the road but there was no shelter. Off we went again coming to a little town within 5 minutes, there was a picnic area that we found a roof to hide under.
We hid out there for a half hour checking the weather forecast for the town's we were headed to. The rain stopped, the sky to the west was brighter, we had the rain gear on and we went for it. the rest of the day was dry😁
On thru Wisconsin and Minnesota stopping in Crookston on the border of North Dakota which is directly south of Winnipeg.
We crossed the Mississippi River, it was pretty small in this area. crossing from Wisconsin to Minnesota we went over the St Louis River on a very long bridge which curved to the far shore. We had pulled up to a stop sign in Superior beside a long haul driver, he had a pillow beside his window and a hound had his head resting there. So cute, the driver rolled his window down and we talked to the dog.
Minnesota is farm country with lots of crops ready for harvest; on the side of the highway we saw 2 wild turkeys standing in the yellow gold grain.
