May 10, day 7: Hazen, ND to Casselton, ND

Visited Knife River Indian Villages National Historic Site a short drive from Hazen where the same woman park ranger we met in the Hazen grocery store last evening greeted us at the visitor center. The villages marked the location where Lewis and Clark wintered over with the Hidatsa and Mandan people on their trip west to the Pacific Ocean and where they were joined by Sacakawea, her husband Toussaint Charbonneau and their son Pomp.  Our drive toward Fargo, ND soon turned to rain and then heavy snow – did we leave home too soon?!  We finally stopped just short of Fargo at a RV park with a good electric hookup to drive our heaters.  Snuggled in and with good wifi we are catching up on many small chores and will head through Fargo in the morning and on into Minnesota.
