My roadtrip destination to Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota started as I entered the USA from Manitoba, Canada. I crossed the border and travelled down Route 83. When crossing the border I cannot bring any fruit or vegetables with me so my first stop was at Minot to get groceries.
I also had a few rocks hit my windshield over the last few days so I went looking for a place to fix the rock chips on my windshield. No luck, I checked out a few places but no one had any openings for a few days. Rocks hitting windshields must be a more common occurrence than I thought! The cracks were all really small so decided I could live with them.
While in Minot I explored the Scandinavian Heritage Park. The park and visitor centre museum informed me of the Scandinavian history in this area. The main display in the park is the replica of Gol Stave Church, a stunningly built wooden church. The original church is found in Oslo, Norway. The inside of the church was closed for the season so I could only walk around outside. So beautiful.
