Cando Shirts - Duck Hunting Capital of North Dakota

Cando is such an awesome little town and it has a real community to it. I saw some old bar t-shirts from small towns and thought that Cando could use a shirt for itself. These shirts depict a hunter in Cando, ND taking aim during duck hunting season featuring the population and established date of the town.

Do you have Cando pride? Love to hunt or just love the design then these are for you. These are crowd sourced and available for a limited time. There are only a few days to buy them before the chance is over so be sure to grab yourself a Cando T-Shirt.

The Unexplained of North Dakota

Over the last few years of driving cross country I have often thought about the unexplained... yes, the aliens and ufos of the world. Much of the thoughts fueled by Coast-to-Coast syndicated radio show (Art Bell).

I have wondered about what sightings and unexplained events have happened throughout North Dakota so I turned to the web to do research and got connected with Undercover Files - Forum About Government Conspiracies, Misinformation, UFOs, Aliens and the Unexplained. Because I didn't grow up in North Dakota I think I'm missing out on a lot of history. I've heard about government bases, bunkers and facilities which if now abandoned would make great doomsday preparation facilities.

How the mind can go wild and think of all different things. What are your thoughts on the unexplained and the end of the world?

Traveling into Devils Lake, North Dakota

Devil's Lake was a 30 minute drive from Cando, Nd.
This shot was taken during my drive to the local Indian casino -- Spirit Lake Casino ( http://spiritlakecasino.com/ ). A storm was just passing and the sky and reflections were just perfect. Made me see real beauty in the landscape despite the mosquitoes during the humid summers.

The drive was always longer than it seemed. Especially coming from a city where the roadways are connected in every angle having to drive in straight lines is less direct than diagonal :) Add on the extra time with the snow during the winter and the construction fixing the damaged roads from all the plowing in non-snow time -- sometimes thing's took a little longer than expected. But I don't ever remember being in too much of a hurry in the first place ;)
