After spending four days visiting friends and relatives in SW Nebraska and NE Colorado and being parked in my sister Gloria's beautiful landscaped yard we departed Grant, NE we headed north on US 61 through the level farm lands of SW NE. At Ogalalla (home of boot hill) we turned west on I-80 through the Platte river valley. Near Julesburg, CO we entered the rolling hills of the NE panhandle passing by many fields of winter wheat and pastures with cattle grazing the green grass. At Sidney, NE we stopped at Cabela's to look for a pair of shoes which we didn't find. Sidney is where the first Cabela's store was and is also the home of their corporate offices. We turned north on US 385 crossing the North Platte River at Bridgeport, NE on toward Gering, NE passing many fields planted to sugar beets and the many trains loaded with coal. Just to the south of Chadron, NE we passed through the through
the Nebraska National Forest in the pine tree covered Pine Ridge area. Continuing on north as we entered South Dakota found us driving through the long rolling green grass covered hills of the Buffalo Gap National Grassland. At Hot Springs we continued on North on ND 79 enjoying the grasslands to the right and the tree covered Black Hills to our left. We stopped in Hermosa, SD at the Heartland RV Park for the night. I guess we still have the cloud over us as it rained in the night and the forecast is for rain today. The first two days in SW NE also were rainy.
