Last week we were in North Dakota and visited Theodore Roosevelt National Park. Before he was a Rough Rider and before he became President Teddy Roosevelt was a rancher. In the late 1800s he owned two ranches in North Dakota, Elkhorn Ranch and Maltese Cross Ranch. He was not a very good rancher and both ranches failed within a few years. We may never have known anything about him had he succeeded. Decades later in 1947 the land around these ranches was set aside as Theodore Roosevelt National Park.
The park was beautiful and not crowded. Lots to see.
