Today marks a Month and a Half I have been on the road!
We out-ran the bad weather yesterday... It rained like a pig all night long in Grand Island Nebraska... This is what we woke up to from our hotel room:

The good news is, it stopped raining after breakfast and we took off across I80 out of Nebraska toward Iowa... under cloudy skies.
The bad news is nothing too interesting happened today... Didn't meet any interesting people... so I'll share with you a few things I haven't reported so far.
Two days ago, we caught up to 5 bikers traveling together. My intention was to pass them.... I passed the first biker and was behind a girl biker for a while... Suddenly she began to slow down and wave at me.
I thought she wanted me to pass her.... But when I saw the other 2 guys ahead of her slow down too.... I hit the brakes.... and slowed right down.
There, on the edge of the road was a full grown deer... looking at us... ready to dart out onto the road... If any of us hit it, we would not survive at the speeds we were traveling... Very Scary!
On a funnier note.... Yesterday in Nebraska, I saw, again, the cows I saw in 2004 that made me laugh out loud....
These cows are completely black.... dark black.... Except for the very front of their face.... which is Very White!
They look hilarious!
Imagine going by about a hundred cows at a fence by the side of the road... that are all looking at you.... that are all black... with what looks like Mime Makup on their face!.... Looking like they are about to do something!....
You get the feeling that when you are out of sight, they'll all get up and start pulling on a pretend rope... and/or appear to be walking against an imagined strong head wind.... or maybe miming their way out of an invisible box!
They are funny cows!
On an even funnier note... we turned into a gas station I am convinced my God Son Kevin... aka... BB.. and his *BFBF would find a great place to fill up!
![]()
As we got east of Desmoines Iowa... the skies darkened... Really darkened.. and it got very cold... and then the rain started...
We stopped short of our goal today and we are now in Amana Colonies Williamsburg Iowa... a little German resort... 100 miles west of Chicago.
If the rain gods hold out tomorrow... and I don't run into any rectums at the border.... we should be in our own bed tomorrow night!.... YEH!
Stay tuned for the voyage recap!

Hey BB... they also rent movies!
May I suggest: The Crying Game?
or maybe: Broke Back Mountain?
Or.. I know:.... Rent?
