Brule River |
along hwy 2 a quaint antique shop |
In Duluth I enjoyed the view as I crossed the bridge over the St. Louis River. A gas stop at Sam's club and I was on my way once more.
I followed hwy 210 west through Cromwell to Wright where I stopped for a rest break and a picnic lunch.
Continuing through Tamarack, McGregor and then following Hwy 169 to Aitkin so I could stop in Garrison to see the view to Mille Lacs Lake
From there I took Hwy 18 to Brainard where I stopped at Lum Park for view to Rice Lake (which is a part of the Mississippi River. I also stopped at the Northern Pacific
Center (1511 Northern Pacific Rd) to see the historic rail road buildings that have now been converted to modern usage.

Now I once more continued west on hwy 210 through Staples and Aldrich to Wadena.
Now there was a lovely scenic stretch Henning, Vinning, Battle Lake and Underwood into Fergus Falls. I understand this strech of road is called the "viking trail" in honour of the history of the early settlers to this area.

In Fergus Falls I found a lovely camp site in Delagoon Park on Pebble Lake. Setting up for the evening went quickly and soon I was relaxing, walking around to enjoy views of the lake and reading as the sun set behind the trees that shaded my camping site.
