After leaving a campground that did not
work out, the two RV Gypsies looked in the North Dakota travel book
and called Larimore Dam and Recreation Area campground. They were only
about a one-hour drive away, and Lee Duquette got a reservation.
When the two RV Gypsies arrived, the office was closed but Lee Duquette
called on the phone and the lady drove up on a big lawn mower and gave
them a site. All the sites here were very long. Once away from the entry
and office, the roads became dirt roads, which is mostly normal at campgrounds.
The sites were all nice grass. The two RV Gypsies got a 50 amp full-hook
site. The campground had free unsecured Wi-Fi,
but it did not work at the site of the two RV Gypsies. There
were a lot of RVs in the campground, but no people were seen by Lee
or Karen Duquette. Water pressure was good. TV came in nicely.
The dam, a beach and a picnic area were also on the Larimore Dam Recreation
Area site, within walking distance. Now and then
a train and train horn could be heard in the distance, but they
were far enough away that they did not stop Karen Duquette from sleeping.
Check-out time was NOON on this date. |

To leave this campground, Lee duquette
drove forward out of their spot and down the lane of grass shown below
in order to get back to the regular dirt roads out of the campground. |

Below: The Larimore Dam. There are lots
of these little dams all around the area. |
