When we passed through the adjacent town the night before we saw a sign saying that there is a farmers market on Fridays. We got up early to go there and then when I rechecked the date I saw that it was already Saturday. We were soooo disappointed as we drove on. The next day or so it turned out that we had been one day off, that the phone showed the wrong date. Even later, about a week after that incident I discovered that we had not been a day off. It was just that the phone was set on the 24 hour clock and when David adjusted the time he was 12 hours off...
We stopped for lunch in a tiny town that had a very nice park and even nicer street signs.
Nebraska had a lot of towns with funny names, like Almeria for example. Almería is also a small town in southern Spain..
The other thing that Nebraska had lot of is corn. Most of the way through that state it was just cornfield after cornfield after cornfield. That is one reason why there are not too many pictures - a lot of it looked exactly the same.
We drove towards big cities like Lincoln and Omaha but did not make it quite that far. We stopped at a town called Grand Island. We had hoped to stay at a state park there but it turned out to be full. Instead we went swimming there (water was so warm that it felt like swimming in a soup :) and then found a very nice and cheap county park just a couple of miles down the road. It turned out to be our cheapest park this far - $5 dollars a night and that included showers!
