Rugby, ND

From Williston we drove to Rugy, ND.  Didn't know this before but Rugby is famous for being the geographical center of North America.


Apparently the wind blows good here because there are alot of wind turbines in the area.



We had two reasons for stopping here for the night.

1) It was about a day's drive from Williston.
2) (And most important)  Before we left TX in March our granddaugher, Emma, wanted us to camp overnight in ND so that we could put a sticker on our US map showing that we had been there.  And, then she found an article in her American Girl magazine about a special turtle in Dunseth, ND (that just happened to be about 30 miles north of Rugby. 

So, after we got setup in our CG, we drove to Dunseth and here are the pictures of the turtle:



Totally made out of wheels!!






Needless to say, we were impressed and are glad that Emma suggested we see it!
