Day 43

Spent the morning in Winnipeg. Ned and Ted both got a much needed haircut and when we left the mall we headed south. We arrived at the border crossing about 1 pm. We were asked to pull aside so a inspector could come check out the fruits and vegetables we had with us. Everything checked out except for a piece of firewood that had bark on it. We were denied entry into the states and had to return to canada to get rid of the offending wood. We pulled a u turn and got in line for Canadian customs.  We cleared customs back into Canada with ease, dropped the wood in a bin, pulled another u turn and got back inline for the second attempt to get into the states. This attempt was smoother and we were on the road again.
 Drove to Grand Forks ND, to pick up some supplies to go walleye fishing,and to buy a ND fishing licence. Wasn't able to buy a licence because 200 yards before the store we crossed a small bridge and we were actually in Minnesota. 
 Crossed back into ND and went to a indoor splash park. Ned and Ted had a great time and we called it a night in the parking lot.
