 7/9/2026

Unlike yesterday, we had a lengthy travel day. We stopped first at a nearby town (Valley City, ND) for fuel, a few groceries and a dog park to burn some puppy energy. Fortunately, two year old Zoe was there and wanted to play. Valley City is known as the city of bridges. This trestle bridge was built in1908 for freight trains. It is 1000 feet tall and over 4000 feet long and is still used today.
We entered Minnesota in the afternoon and the terrain changed to a land filled with trees. Our campground tonight is along the Mississippi River at the Pokegama Dam Campground.

Zoe:  "I'm going to get you"

That's what you think

Trestle bridge

A patriotic town of 300 people had these lovely light poles and flags.

And then there were trees!
