We took a cruise on the lake today. We ended by going by the resort with a floating green where you need a water taxi to get to the green to putt out. They move the green every day with a set of cables making the hole anywhere from 75 to 175 yards. They also have a driving range which uses flo

We left Bismarck at about noon after talking with a retired Air Force couple from Florida for about an hour exchanging stories and tips. We were only going about 100 miles today and spent another hour talking with a Canadian couple at a rest stop on the way. We crossed the Missouri river (where
