LOL........ As a North Dakotan, we hope this perception continues. The
quality of life here is fantastic!! My nearest neighbor is 1 mile away (and
there are only 3 within 5 miles), air is clean, very little noise, wildlife like
I've never seen. North Dakota is the #1 birding state in the union.
I moved here in 1999 having lived in Minnesota and Corpus Christi, Texas.
I too had the flat, featureless preception prior to coming here. As I type
the sounds of the spring snow goose migration permiate my homes walls,
between 60 and 70 whitetails are feeding in last years corn field, and a
half dozen wild turkeys are amongst them. Out my kitchen window
yesterday I spotted a juvinile moose cruising toward the lake and the
bald eagles are thick due to their migration as well (saw 6 out the window
yesterday alone).
And fishing and hunting????? Unbelievable!! Eat your heart out Minnesota.
The fishing season never closes here, walleye the year long. Jumbo perch,
and 25# plus northern pike. I'm hoping to draw a moose tag, elk tag, or
the coveted Big Horn sheep tag this year. Long shots, but at least I have
a shot.
Soooo..... Yes, please continue to believe this is a barren wasteland.
