-We had the honors of stayin in Ogalla, Nebraska, which I believe to be the greatest American, hick town in all of the U S of A! I felt like I had been warped back to the 90's. I had forgotten what it is to be part of the this special group of people.... but honeslty the people at the "golden Spur Steakhouse" made us feel right at home with the best homemade food and personal service. So if any of you are ever in Ogalalla, Nebraska, be sure to stop by the "Golden Spur." You will not be dissappointed. Day 4 complete.
-Day 5: more driving... through the rest of Nebraska, Denver, over the Rockies, and into beautiful Utah!! Gotta Love ZION.
Mission complete: I feel like I have conquered a big chunck of the US.. Next U.S. destination.... the South; anyone want to join me?
