As we were driving across North Dakota on our way to Yellowstone National Park we noticed that we were running low on gas. We had filled up earlier at Fargo but now we were on the western side of the state where there are not so many cities or filling stations.
We decided that it would be best to stop in the small town of
Medora. The town is a little ways off of the interstate but we knew that they had a small gas station in town as we had stopped for gas once on a past trip to Yellowstone. Unfortunately we did not know that the road into town was under road construction.
Since we had to wait for our turn to use single lane that now used to get into and out of town, I decided to get out of the car and take a couple of pics of the fluffy white clouds that were dancing across the sky. It was not long before we were on our way again.
The time that we spent waiting was a nice little break on a very long road trip.

We never know the reson why we are sent off the beaten track although later it becomes quite obvious. Nice shots, well worth a few minutes of your time.
I like your attitude, and the sky captures.
It's hard to beat hills and fluffy clouds for beauty! Nice shots. ;-)
Getting off the main road often provides nice surprises. Great big patch of sky to enjoy there, thanks for sharing with us all.
Liked the waterfall photos a couple of posts back as well.
Awesome looks like a beautiful place to visit. I like the first shot best!
Excellent shots, looks gorgeous there.
Have a great weekend.

My first time here. Love your blog. Your photos are amazing.
Last Summer, my husband and I took a road trip from Chicagoland to Yellowstone in our Mini Cooper...
What a beautiful country we live in!

Very nice sky watch shots. I hope you enjoyed the trip.
I like your style. Get out of the car, take some photos then get the gas. Images are excellent!
