Bold Move, Grand Results
We
decided to go for a real big day and make the final drive to Danbury
shorter. We left Moosomin SK at a little
before 8:00 am and headed for Winnipeg.
We thought about having lunch there but couldn't find an appropriate
place to stop so we had lunch at a truckstop in Pembina ND. Our luck started to turn as we stopped for a
break just west of Crookston MN and the information booth had a list of
campgrounds on Highway 2. We chose to try
a city park in Bagley MN. We called and even
though it was Saturday they said there were a couple of openings and if we got
there before they were gone we could have one.
Our day was getting good. When we
arrived, not only did they have a spot but it was one that we could drive
through and not unhook, it was about 60 feet from the showers and it had 50 amp
electric. But the best was yet to come. We noticed a lot of cars parked on the street
but didn’t know why. When I registered,
the manager said we were in luck. The
Clearwater County fair was going on this weekend and we were parked right
across the street! We had a county fair
dinner of turkey legs cooked up by the local scout troop, funnel cakes, cheese
curds, mini donuts, foot long corn dog, roast buttered corn on the cob, and
topped it all off with homemade cinnamon rolls. Good thing there was four of us or that would
have been a lot to eat for one person.
What a day! We covered a lot of
miles and still had time to take in the fair.
