Flying through Chicago to Bismarck for a few days. Great view of the Chicago lakeshore on approach to O’Hare, and patriotic view as I walked through the terminal.

I’ll be visiting the University of Mary in Bismarck for a few days of bioethics study. It’ll be my first time back in the Dakotas in a while. I passed through Minot, North Dakota on Amtrak’s “Empire Builder” route from Chicago to Seattle in 2011, and later that year drove from Denver to the Black Hills in South Dakota to see Mount Rushmore.

Looking forward to being in Bismarck, and hopefully seeing some of the city in between seminar sessions. It’ll be good to spend meaningful time in North Dakota and take in the sights of the Mighty Missouri and the prairie.
