We rolled through Minnesota, North Dakota, and Montana on purposeful rails, following the promise of an open West. No wagons or horses or death by cholera or exposure. No conflict with Indigenous tribes as we imposed on their land. Great spaces unfurled outside
This is amazing, Matt! This makes you want to hop a train and head west! To quote my wife, “This is beautifully written!”.
Ha! Thank you, Dave! And your wife, too!
