17 August 2018 Cloquet to Hinckley

We took the short drive from Cloquet to the Grand Casino RV Resort in Hinckley MN. Getting out of the Journey KOA was difficult. The maneuvering was very tight with telephone poles, bushes, trees and stone walls making it a challenge. We made it out without damaging anything! We originally wanted to go to Minneapolis today since David has to fly out for a business trip from there, and we have friends we wanted to visit. But the state fair is running and all the RV resorts in and around Minneapolis were booked up on the weekends months ago. So we could not get a spot until Monday. So we chose Grand Casino as a good midway point. The RV resort is probably the best we have stayed in since leaving Texas. Paved roads and RV sites, manicured lawns, great water pressure, excellent WiFi (but slow speeds), all the sites are full hookups. The only slight downside is they are all back in sites. But we are getting better and backing up this beast. Hinckley is very small with just over 1000 people.  Most probably work for the casino and its properties.  We had dinner at a little family owned joint named Cassidy’s (Not recommended).  Next door is an American Best Inn and the marquee made us laugh out loud.
