Holiday Inn Midtown Grand Island

... another portion of America seen from the windows of my car. Fortunately the time passed quickly as we continued listening to our Michael Connelly book on tape (book on ipod? recorded book? i dunno. none have the same ring). We're regular detectives by this point the way we've been throwing out all sorts of conjectures about the murders. Harry Bosch is keeping us on our toes...erm...on the edges of our ...

... Where hay bales out number humans and cattle out number hay bales. Where dual wheel pickups are king. Where 5 plus miles views across fields are common. And where corn rules.<br><br>This drive may have added a couple hours to our trip but we saw what most tourists don't. Pictures we have, bu they are in the camera which is down in the truck. I'll try to get them uploaded tomorrow night.

Alright, i'm still at home and getting ready to go to the airport. My nerves are shot and i'm kinda sad that i'm leaving everyone for 2 weeks!! But it's going to be amazing and i just know everyone will be reading this and commenting to keep me happy and entertained... RIGHT????!!!!!<br><br>Also, i will miss my cats. ;)<br>

Well, it's been a long time planning and it's almost here. I've got only 46 hours left before i leave for France. I do hope you'll join me on my 2 week excursion to Europe. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you may even be appalled, but in any case you'll have nearly as much fun as me (ok, let's be honest, not even close, but you'll be alright). Talk to you soon!!<br><br>TTFN <br>

... South America? How much do I want? <br> Can I lose those last ten pounds so I can fit those jeans I want to take?<br><br> Craigslist shall be my friend. I have already starting attempting to sell some things. Want a box set of Family Guy dvds? No one would buy the dual cassette tape deck. I wonder if they'll buy the VCR. Any one want a Janet Craig? I hate to wate stuff, but it's easier to just give away. Is there a market for odds and ends ...

After a short drive from Omaha we made it to Lincoln, Nebraska. The small town home to the University of Nebraska. We parked on campus and walked around looking for places to take photos. We had some fun playing on some of the statues and goofing off. We saw alot of ...

We traveled north through Oklahoma and Kansas (via I 35;I 135; US 81) for 12 hours. Finally, after traveling for 12 hours, we found a place to stop!!! It was nice having our RV to just park. It was 48 degrees, Tuesday Morning, in Grand Island, NE!!!

Today, Friday, was another driving day. OK Nebraska rivals Nevada for the worst state ever to drive through! We already described Nevada. Nebraska is desolate and flat the sand of Nevada is traded for wheat fields. Fortunately today was a short (320 mile) day. We arrived in Grand Island at around 5:00 and immediately headed for the pool. It was hot outside. We swam, ate dinner and swam some more. The night was ...

... but I wasn't convinved, one of the buffallo had a funny look in his eye. We'd eaten so much junk food that we couldn't bare to eat at another KFC, McD's or Burger King so when we spotted a sign for Country Kitchen off the interstate we jumped at the chance to stop. After a wrong turn into a tiny little town called Stuart we found the Country Kitchen and ate lovely vegetables, brocolli and stuff.. it was like finding hidden treasure. I'm not going to rant on about how ...

Hi Everyone, Our entry is titled "Thanksgiving" for a very good reason. We spent many Thanksgiving holidays with Larry and Laurie Ann and their three girls and LA prepared a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner for us last night. We arrived save and sound in Lincoln yesterday around 6:30 pm after a hard ride of 490 miles - 250 of them in the rain - our ...
