Heading up I-25 towards Cheyenne, the price of Gas got as low as $1.88. Definitely nice as in CA in certain areas, it was over $4.00
At Warren AFB, the Antelope are very common. These were right next to the road and weren't even bothered by the presence of people.
When we arrived, the trees were still very pretty with frozen dew still on them.
There were 2 geese taking their time walking across the street, even longer than it takes Maine Turkeys crossing the road.
Today, after covering 445 miles to Lincoln Nebraska, we decided to take a short detour in Kearney, NE to see some Sandhill Cranes. They are in the area from February to April. For the local people, this is a yearly viewing event numbering 600,000. Today we drove by the corn fields to sight a few feeding before another long days journey.
Along the road which is where the Kearney State Park is, there are many corn fields where they were feeding.
For more information on the event, Visit Sandhill Cranes
Tonight we are in Lincoln, Nebraska. Today we went from 6000 feet above sea level to 890 feet. We have been over 8500 miles in 68 days and we are within 2000 miles from home. But we aren't done yet. Although closed for renovations, we plan to go to the Harry S. Truman Library and Museum and have lunch with a former student. There are more and more places where it is hard to find an open restaurant.
Although Grammy wasn't in any of the pictures, she is safe and healthy. and hopes to be home soon.
