General Overview of Downtown Ellendale.
"After a few blocks the main street goes onto two hard, muddy tracks into a field, past a quonset hut full of farm machinery and repair tools, and then ends in a field. A man standing in the field is looking at me suspiciously, wondering what I am doing, probably, as I look into the Quonset hut. I return down the street, find a chilly bench and stare at the motorcycle. Nothing to do. .. It was cold all right, but not that cold. How do John and Sylvia ever get through Minnesota winters? I wonder. There’s kind of a glaring inconsistency here, that’s almost too obvious to dwell on. If they can’t stand physical discomfort and they can’t stand technology, they’ve got a little compromising to do.“ Ellendale, ND. The town's single remaining "Quonset Hut" (at far right with curved roof) is one block North of Main Street. Nodak Hotel is at far left.
