150 years after Custer’s 1876 westward march from Fort Abraham Lincoln toward the Little Bighorn, the deep ruts left by the heavy wagon trains of his expedition are still clearly visible across parts of western North Dakota and eastern Montana. Pictured here are Custer’s ruts in Slope County, ND.
Sometimes I think it’s pretty nice here. Then my friends from northern MN complain about -35 winter weather and I remember we have that too.
Then my friends in Wyoming complain about wind storms of 80mph and I remember we have that too.
Then my friends in the south complain about temps over 100 and I remember we have that too.

Took a little drive from North Dakota to North Carolina to receive my state sportswriter award from the @NSMASportsMedia.

My old man called tonight and we talked for almost an hour. A few years ago I would’ve been too busy for that to happen but now days I drop everything and enjoy every minute of it. I’ll never regret making the time.
A couple of my boys went to sleep an hour late tonight because of it but they’ll survive 😂
