So far this summer I've visited eleven states along the Lewis & Clark Trail (some of them two or three times), Cooperstown, NY, for a historic Baseball Hall of Fame Induction Week-end, and next week I'm headed back to North Dakota to share the legacy of Teddy Roosevelt's Dakota with a Minnesota group.  It's been a great summer and we're looking forward to a banner fall.  We'd love to host you on the trail on one of these upcoming adventures.  Please let us hear from you!

If you keep a list of all the states you have yet to visit, North Dakota is probably on it.  You can check that one off after you explore the land where legends come alive!  It's also home to the world's only International Peace Garden, a sea-worthy Viking Ship, three genuine white buffalo, the acclaimed Medora Musical, plus the sweeping grandeur of the northern plains and plenty of surprises.
