| Mandan, North Dakota |
 |
| Our campsite at the Colonial Motel and campground. It was not the greatest one we stopped at in ND, but served its purpose. |
 |
| ND Heritage Center & State Museum entrance. |
 |
| These round rocks are called canon ball rocks, They come from the western part of the state along the Canon Ball River. |
 |
| The following are an examples of the many displays in the museum. We could have spent many hours going through the display rooms. It was a wonderful museum. |
 |
| From the Heritage Center we walked over to the North Dakota State Capital Building. |
 |
| The building is 19 stories high. On the 18th floor is an observatory room that goes all the way around the building. |
 |
| The main entry is 36 feet high. The lights hanging from the ceiling were designed to look like heads of wheat. |
 |
| This one tells it all. |
 |
| Some of the seating along the hall of the legislative wing of the building. |
 |
| The Congress chambers. They only meet every other year for 88 days. |
 |
| The Senator's chambers. They also meet every other year for 88 days. |
 |
| Taking a little rest on the observation floor which is the 18th floor. |
 |
| Looking out the windows on the 18th floor. |
 |
| On the ground floor again, but Kay would not let me use the little security car. |
 |
| This statue of Sacajawea |
 |
| Kay loved this big cottonwood tree. |
 |
| We stopped at a farmers market to get some good sweet corn. We had some of it for supper, and it was sooooo very good. |
 |
| We took a tour around the park on this wagon, pulled by a brand new Case tractor. |
 |
| A view of General Custer's house. |
 |
