Somewhere in Nebraska

Jill's Journal: We said the last of our goodbyes this morning. Sadness. :(

It was a wonderful, wonderful visit. This is the first Iowa trip we’ve made that the girls will really remember. I think it’s safe to say they loved every minute and most especially the people. As we left, Madelyn told me, “I will remember everything about Iowa. I promise!” And as we were about to cross the state line, Erika said coyly, “How about you put it in reverse?”

Tonight we’re about 300 miles away from Orange City in Kearney, Nebraska, a surprisingly big town in the middle of a whole lot of farmland. It’s cooooold, with some freezing rain adding insult to injury. Happily, we’re snug as a bug in a rug in our little house on wheels, all tucked in for the night. We’ll do a good bit more driving tomorrow.
