I was born in North Dakota. It's where my Dad and the Olson family originate. Mom and Dad moved to Ohio when I was still very young. Most of my feelings of North Dakota were generated from stories Dad told of his childhood as well as the few trips we took back there during my life. Here are some stories, observation and histories related to North Dakota.
