6 days, 1700+ miles, and all eleven MN Native communities visited. Done. Next state?

1,066 miles and at the Fond du Lac community.

The days ends with 891 miles, a visit to the Grand Portage band of the Chippewa, and the Canadians eyeing me suspiciously.

Mile 641 over neglected state roads to arrive Nett Lake of the Chippewa tribe.

Mile 490 and at the Red Lake band of Chippewa.

Starting the morning at mile 439 at the Leech Lake Chippewa tribe.

Getting to the #Bagley #Cenex by any means necessary.

290 miles in and I’ve hit the White Earth community. Some beautiful land here.

129 miles into today’s leg and have arrived at the Mille Lacs Band of the Chippewa community.

Beautiful, calm sun setting over the #AVHS lot. May the sunset of this crazy school year be the same.

#econ4life Good luck boys! @AVHSAcademics

@NAPAKnowHow in Prior Lake with no staff wearing masks, chumming it up mask-less friends. I’ll take my business elsewhere.
