Gackle, North Dakota to Enderlin, North Dakota - August 16, 2021

I woke around 6:30 this morning, did a little cleaning of the Honey Hub and cycled out. I was officially on the road by 8:00 AM, a good start for me.

I had a chance to talk with Beth, using my AirPods, while pedaling the first leg of the ride.

My initial plan was to camp at Little Yellowstone Park, about fifty-five miles from Gackle. With about ten miles to go, I decided to extend the ride to Enderlin.

I knew that they had a campsite. I had, the day before, called to see if there was any motel availability in Enderlin, but found that everything was booked in the two town motels. When I arrived, I figured that I’d ask, in person, to see if there was a room.

Sometimes, you can only get what you want in person.

I cycled, in total, over seventy miles to the Enderlin Inn, the first motel that I came across. When I initially asked the woman at the desk if they had a room, she said that they were booked. Then, she hesitated. She put in a quick call and let me know that, if I was willing to wait until six o’clock, there would be a room. Yeeesss!

I had cycled over seventy miles on two of the last three days and this was the perfect gift for a weary traveler.

This is the Magic of travel. You have to believe…

Tomorrow - FARGO!
