NorthDakotaHockey Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Ride the Amtrak for about $40 each way. Better yet, drive, if you have a car available. Heck, you can drive to the Cities in just about the same time that you can fly, what with all of the rigamarole that goes with flying these days. One of the high rollers on this site has a plane . . . . Or is that just one of those German tin can BMWs that he treats like a plane . . . .
