Medora For 1 More Day

Red Trail Campground Medora, North Dakota Day 4

Another nice morning walk through town this time with Vicki as my walking companion.  Thanks for chatting with me, it makes walking so much more fun!

Today was just a genuinely lazy day…not much accomplished and nowhere we really wanted to go.  Tim did get to watch the NASCAR race and I washed clothes again while I had the opportunity. 

I had been trying to get pictures of the meadowlarks feeding on these coneflowers…but with no success.

An eastbound train loaded with coal.

This evening we took the grill and a cooler full of dinner into the park.  We found a shady picnic spot and grilled our chicken feta burgers and garlic chicken sausage.  We enjoyed some wine and our meal.

After eating, we drove along the scenic road watching the golden tangerine light as it bathed the landscape in color and as the shadows lengthened.

We saw wild turkeys.

We saw bison along the road.

We saw a band of wild horses. 

Farewell to this place.
