North Dakota has no iconic destination sites nor any particularly pleasant scenry, and it's not a state you'd go through to get anywhere else. The main reason to visit is that you're a completist, trying to get all 50 states in (you can join the "Saving the Best for Last" club, and get a certificate).
If you do go to North Dakota, you'll probably stick to Fargo, which has some nice museums and art galleries. If you're adventurous, you might drive west on I-94 to Bismarck, to see the State Capitol. I doubt that you'll go to Minot (pronounced My-not).
1. It's in the far north of the state, near the Canadian border, about 500 miles from the nearest gay neighborhood.
2. The population is 90% white.
3. The temperature at this writing is -12 degrees.
4. The local art museum consists of two rooms.
5. There is only one gay-friendly church.
6. The Mouse River Players Community Theater is doing
A Year with Frog and Toad, A Christmas Carol, The Orphan Train, and
12 Angry Jurors7. Minot State University doesn't have a drama department or a swim team. It does have wrestling.
8. Magic City High School has a swim team. Most of the athletes are girls.
On the other hand, there's an army base nearby. Who can say no to a hunky soldier carrying a puppy?
Minot has both power lifting and bodybuilding clubs.
That means a lot of muscular guys available for dates.
Of course, you might have to drive into Fargo.
