    Awesome video Robert! I live in Jamestown ND every year we go to Medora, because we can’t get enough of the badlands.

    That building is our water intake for the city. No matter the water level of the Missouri we are still able to reach water from below the river. You should have checked out the lobby of the capital building. It has some impressive art deco design. It was built during the depression as economically as possible. Beautiful video.

    As a 22 year resident of Bismarck/Mandan you absolutely did a great job on this video. A couple things I'd like to help you out with. The bridge w the 11 white spires on the east and westside. That's Memorial Bridge. Each plaza has 11 spires that symbolize the Armistice, which is the peace agreement reached at the 11th hour of the 11th day in the 11th month of 1918 to end World War I.
    Five overlooks on the south side of the bridge each represent and recognize a service branch of the United States military: Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard. The plazas and overlooks are designed to honor all veterans with flags. The flags, plazas and overlooks symbolize the military standing guard, protecting the communities of Bismarck and Mandan, North Dakota and America. That weird shaped piece of gray metal you saw is from 9-11. That's scrap from the World Trade Center attacks. Also, I agree w the Space Aliens take....the food is mostly terrible. Their fire place pizzas are awesome though. I am a bit bummed for you that you did not get to go inside the capital building. They have a beautiful North Dakota Hall of Fame exhibit and my favorite part, you can go to the top floor and it's views is all for the people. 360 degree view on that 19th floor. Over all, great video and you really did do your research. Like you, I also want to take a trip on the Lewis and Clark trail. I'm 40 and this has been a life long dream. Also, next time you are up here, let me know. I'll show you Medora in 2025 when the Teddy Roosevelt Presidential library is built. Better be there. Thanks and safe travels.

    My Grandpa was interviewed for that museums archives. Having homesteaded in 1906, he had a lot of stories to tell about prairie fires, etc.

    I've got my Sunday morning coffee...time to hit the Lewis & Clark trail again! The Space Alien Grill & Bar looks like a midwest version of the Little A'Le'Inn on the Extraterrestrial Hwy. The CCC statue at Fort Abraham Lincoln looks awfully familiar--I think I saw his twin brother at Colossal Cavern in Arizona. The Heritage Center museum looks like a must-visit spot when I get back to the area. I agree with your opinion about museums numbering their artifacts instead of labeling them individually. The Mark Twain quote at the end of the episode--how true it is. Happy trails!

    Hello Traveling Robert🍕🍕🍔🍔🍔🎷🎷🎸🎸🍟🍟🍟...HEY, where's the PELICANS...i miss the PELICANS😊😊😊. Robert, this was an amazing look at what Bismarck is all about. I really enjoyed the boat ride on the Missouri River...i love boat rides. Musuems were so awesome too, taking a look at so many awesome illustrations...just amazing. I can't wait to see what's next...hmmm are we looking at the next stop...like Theodore Roosevelt National Park. I've been there and wondering if that is the next place.
    AWESOME VIDEO ROBERT👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍.

    I'm from Bismarck? I actually grew up in a house the was on the same spot as the "Space Aliens" restaurant. Across the street from the cemetery? It was a two lane road back then and a row of about 5 houses to as far as the cemetery. And it was the outskirts of Bismarck? And we were barley in city limits. I used to have dreams as a kid about getting abducted by aliens? LOL. Just dreams. But years later? They tore down those houses. And put Space Aliens where my old house stood? The Alien on the sign? Looked like the Aliens in my dream? Same color and everything. They would be peeking at me from across my room in my dream. Even back then I knew they were just dreams, not real? But I look at that Space Aliens restaurant sign? And I get the creeps. LOL. Love your channel. Love your videos. I'm from North Dakota and think it's totally boring. LOL. But your videos make me proud to from North Dakota and makes me realize my home state isn't boring but interesting history. 😊 And you guys went site seeing in 100 degree weather? I admire that enthusiasm. In North Dakota? We stay inside in air conditioned comfort on 100 degree days.
