[QUOTE="DELACROIX, post: 3606661, member: 49065"] No..No.. Don't go there.. I spent 4 years on a SAC/Missile base in Grand Forks in the early 70's..You haven't seen a winter till you seen one in North Dakota. Snows till April, melts/floods than the mosquitos big as your hand come out. Fours hours of daylight in the winter, you got to plug in your car to keep it running so standard issue is extension cords and jumper cables. People die up there during their blizzards, the worst I lived thru was 60 below with a 80 below wind chill factor, total white out could not see my hand in front of my eyes. All flat, nothing but fields of sunflowers and potatoes, all the farmers leave the state when winter is near. It is like going back to the 1800's for most of the state, their major dance step is clogging I kid you not. Granted with the oil boom up there things have changed and I an talking about being there 50 years ago. If you like the rustic outdoors and privacy it is the state to go to, just be prepared.
