We are now 5/14 of the way through this epic journey, and have pointed our heading towards the northlands. We had a short drive today, ending up in Glenwood, Iowa; we are in a Harvest Host site, parked in the parking lot of a candy and popcorn store. Sounds unlikely doesn’t it? The hosts are very friendly and the popcorn comes in about 12 different flavors. We moved on past the candy display…
During a really warm afternoon (95 degrees or so) we drove the car to Council Bluffs and took a walk across the Bob Kerrey pedestrian bridge, crossing the Missouri River to Omaha. There you go…just when we thought we were done with Nebraska it pulls us right back in. The bridge was beautiful and made for an easy walk.
We drove back to Glenwood for dinner, and now are resting in the motorhome. Our bonus surprise today was electric…we thought we’d be dry camping here, but the host has 30 amp electrical hookups. Huzzah! We have AC!
Tomorrow we drive a little more than 300 miles, but make our first foray into Minnesota. I’m not sure how many lakes we will see tomorrow…more then.
