8-1-08 Day 35 Williston, ND to Fargo

After yesterdays late start, getting in late and losing an hour on the time change we don’t get on the road this morning until 8:15. We continue on 2 east which is a good road. About 20 miles out of Williston it becomes a 4 lane divided highway. Why, I don’t know because it doesn’t have very much traffic and it's still just farms. There are sections under construction and they just move the traffic over to the opposite pair of lanes and make them 2 way. They have added a new crop in this area and that is sunflowers. We are told they use it in bird food and it pays more then wheat for the farmers. We have lunch in Devil’s Lake and call the Harley shop in Great Falls an make a 3 pm appointment for oil changes as we’ve put on another 5K since reaching Alaska. This is a small shop but a busy one with 5 full time techs and in the summer they have an oil change guy. We get in and out in a little over an hour. The tech noticed a bolt missing on the bracket that supports my Y-pipe and put one in. From Great Falls we head south on 29 to Fargo and pick up 94 east and go a couple of exits and pull off and get a hotel room. Tomorrow we are shooting for Milwaukee as we are planning on going to the new Harley Museum on Sunday.
