Wood Chipper From Fargo

Taffy the travel cat met "Skunky" on "Skunky's Travels" near the wood chipper.

Skunky, six feet tall, began his travel show out of Erie, Pennsylvania, and limited his adventures to Ohio, New York, and his home state. Apparently he's become very lost.

When we walked into the Fargo visitors center, one of the people that work there came up to us and let us put on some Minnesota hats like the ones from the movie Fargo to take pictures with the wood chipper. Fun!!
