Nebraska - there's nothing much to say

A flower from Nebraska for the bouquet.


This town has less going for it than a similarly named friend.



The second most noteworthy thing about Nebraska. They are everywhere. Well, they're certainly everywhere in the Route 30 corridor which one takes to avoid the trucks on the I-80; and besides the view is better and you get to drive through all the towns, like Chapman.


The most ubiquitous sight in Nebraska; cornfields as far as the eye can see.



And this is what it looks like from the middle of the road. Why the chicken would ever want to cross this road beats me; it's all the same, on both sides.

Another long day in the saddle, over 600 km. I've crossed the state line (unaccompanied by a minor) and am staying at the Day's End in Missourri Valley. The beer and steak sandwich, in the lounge accross the road, the one with the 12 big screen tv's showing different channels, were very good.
Tomorrow I continue to drift northeast.

  1. That Nebraskan corn isn't 'as high as an elephant's eye' - but then it isn't Oklahoma.
