They call North Dakota the peace garden state, yet every small town seems to have an element from an armored division. This one is in a garden; is this what gives ND it's nickname?

Here's Dave. Pours cement by day, preaches by night. He was great! We talked for over an hour. He gave us breakfast in the morning, and let us put our bikes in his building for safekeeping when the EVIL inn keeper wouldn't let us take our bikes into our rooms.

Here we are leaving Dave's. This was in Motley, MN.

This is our first full day in Minneapolis. Notice in the middle is my Hawaiian pattern Cthulhu doll. Notice the eerie light above it's head.. ooo... creepy, ain't it.
