Greetings from Perkins in Sidney, Nebraska!! We spent last night in the Perkins parking lot parked next to the "God Squad" RV- I felt very safe... Chris reports that the American flag snaps all night and is obnoxious (bear that in mind if you are ever planning on sleeping in the Perkins parking lot in Sidney- maybe pack earplugs...)
Our trip began yesterday at 9am in Chesterfield- in true Caribou County fashion, it was 25 degrees- brrrrr!! The drive was largely uneventful, mostly because we have all spent far too much time on the section of I-80 between Idaho and Cheyenne, Wyoming. The roads are terrible, and for the first time in my life, I was relieved to cross into Nebraska! Chris did have an impromptu truck rodeo in the Little America parking lot, much to the amazement of all the assembled males. Oh, and we nearly ran over a little old man- that would have been a lousy start to the trip!
Today, the trip should start to get more interesting. We are taking a trip to Wahoo, Nebraska. What's in Wahoo, Nebraska you ask? Chris's dead grandfather... I'll let you know how it goes. We plan to make our way across Nebraska and then down into Missouri- from here on out, the humidity rises, the grass gets greener, and we will be getting closer to the Kentucky Horse Park!
Ingrid you are a hoot! Your commentary is way more entertaining than the daily news. I'll look forward to your Stewart/Colbert/SNL style reporting of the WEG. You are all brilliant for bringing the Subaru in the horse trailer. Does that mean, however, that you would not have room for an 8ft Jesus, should you need one. However, plenty of room to shop your brains out at the vendor fair! Are you taking orders and/or reporting on great deals?
ReplyDeleteLincoln Co WY reports 25 degrees too. Have fun

The dogs miss you two. Clancy has gone crazy (if possible) and Katie has stunk up the kitchen...again. Clancy says: only 16 days until the girls return.
