Day 53- Medora, North Dakota

Our drive today was an easy one (Miles City to Medora). This morning we slept in and enjoyed the clear, blue skies. We also took the time to get a few groceries before we left Miles City. I can tell that my shopping has been very limited the past few weeks. It took me forever to get the few items on my list-too large of a store!
As we drove toward North Dakota we started to see the landscape change. It is amazing how different the land formations have been and the Badlands are as equally beautiful. It is very green here which is unusual for this time of the year. We read that part of the park is closed due to mud slides. The campground has many wet spots from a recent rain.
This evening we attended the Pitchfork Fondue which was excellent. I am amazed at how fast and efficient they feed 500 people with much waiting. The steak was excellent and a wonderful aged cut of beef. After dinner we walked the cemetery and drove around town getting our bearings. Also we checked in with the kids. We will be here until Tuesday morning.
