Fargo North Dakota

---

We have arrived in Fargo North Dakota!!! The town made famous by the movie of the same name. I can’t understand why the guy had a wood chipper here…..there are not many trees!! Ya sure!!! He didn’t use it for trees!!!
We had a hard time finding a place to stay as one of the big campgrounds in Fargo is under water and the state of Minnesota is on strike so all government campgrounds are closed!!! Fargo and Moorhead MN are one city with the Red River flowing between them. We thought we would have no problem staying in Minnesota as there are hundreds of State Parks!!! The reunion was to be at Itasca State Park which we booked a year ago!! Not now…. as it is closed. Thank-you very much to the Minnesota Government!!
Finally after driving all around we found a spot at a former KOA in Fargo…. Not the nicest place, but we were just happy to find a campground as the Wal-Mart parking was not that appealing. Went to the Texas Roadhouse for supper and scouted out the airport where tomorrow we are picking up Beryl and Judy and heading off to the family reunion/ 100th birthday party. ..Not at Itasca, but a private campground at Long Lake MN. We had another huge rainstorm tonight and the campground is starting to flood!!
