Day 26. On to Minnesota! Enderlin, North Dakota to Moorhead, Minnesota.

Day 26.  62.2 miles on FLAT ground - only 43 foot elevation gain.  It is amazing how flat this type of flat is - I really think you can see the curvature of the earth!!  
 
 Another way to show this "flatness" is by looking north and south along the same railroad - straight!

Then, there are today's interesting signs.  Here are some of them - again.  They certainly show what getting wrapped up in  your work means!  I always wanted a ride in a police car, but not quite like this.


One of the things that has been impressing us is the size of the farm equiptment.  This thing is huge!  just look at how it makes both of us together look like, well, crops to be harvested.  On second thought, not a good thought.
Finally, we have been toying with a lot of ideas of what to call this whole trip.  Way too many ideas but none of them "stuck" - until now!  As we were biking along the thought came up of calling it "Kindred Spirits" - and low and behold, a few minutes later we came across this bar!  The timing seems to indicate this was/is the correct choice.  We jumped on it and the rest is history - our "name"
is now "Kindred Spirits"!!
Tomorrow we go off the planned maps and schedule and free-lance across Minnesota eventually Spooner, Wisconsin.  There will be stops on the way, so look for more of our "Fun and Frolic".
