Day 25 Williston to New Town


73/1423/2941 Late start after loading van for Suz. Rough road with no shoulder and lots of trucks. I watch my rear view mirror as much as looking forward, just in case. Some deer and lots of wheat fields and hay . I pass a heard of horses all laying down, maybe the wind chill? Windy today with 25mph steady and gusts to 40. Suz has a near miss with a deer crossing the road, she saw it bounding through the grass at the last moment before it crossed the road. No motel rooms available in New Town so we find a rv spot outside of town on lake Sacajawea. Nice little general store and a restaurant up on the main route for dinner. Scenic 23 is the local bar and restaurant and has decent food. I have the local Walleye fish dinner and it is good. Suz is not hungry and has soup. Interesting locals and lots of construction workers and truckers stop here. We return for a master rummy game and suz beats me on the very last hand.....Supposed to get cold tonight, into the 40's again. Tomorrow a short ride to Minot, big city.........
