Where the sam hill do you paddle out there? It's got to involve some
driving, however you cut it. The last time I was through Fargo, I blinked
and missed the Red River, although I know it gets up in the spring,
sometimes. I'd think Lake Ashtabula would be about the nearest big lake,
and that's got to be a haul. Parts of the Missouri would be fun, and Lake
Sakakawea could provide an interesting flatwater trip. But you undoubtedly
have others . . .
