<\/center>Some say it’s north of Mandan. Others say it’s west of Washburn. Yet others don’t know what in the world I’m talking about. The little community of Hensler isn’t offended; rather, they have quite a sense of humor about it. This sign sits along highway 200 between Washburn and Center.<\/p>\nI like when small towns show a sense of humor. I’ve never been interested in “the world’s largest fiberglass wombat” or other such gimmicks. That’s why you’ll never see a photo of Salem Sue or *shudder* the Enchanted Highway here. Some small towns like Hensler have a different way of grabbing attention, and it’s that ingenuity that I salute this morning.<\/p>\n
By the way…I’ve been posting a lot of photos from towns other than Bismarck or Mandan lately. Why do you suppose that is? Well, as summer winds down once again, it’s important to get out and look around our fair state before the winter causes us to settle in for a while. You can get up on a Saturday morning and venture out, see lots of neat sites and have a decent meal, and yet be home by early evening. That’s important to do; anyone who doesn’t appreciate North Dakota has never tried it. You’d be surprised how much there is to enjoy even within just an hour or two of our beloved cities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
