December 28, 1972, G.T. and I were young and very much in love. 

Here we are now 35 years later - still young and very much in love. 

It’s been quite a ride. 

.

Nebraska!  I always feel like I can breathe deeply again when I get to the wide open prairie.  I grew up near a little town along Highway 2 in the middle of Nebraska and that stretch of road feels like home to me still.    We came into the state at Nebraska City and followed Highway 2 through Lincoln, where it joins I-80, on to Grand Island, where it takes on its own identy again. The stretch between Grand Island and Alliance is called the Sandhills Journey Scenic Byway.  http://www.sandhillsjourney.com/  A great ride that I will write more about tomorrow.  Below is a picture of my hometown as we rode in at sunset after our second day on the road.

The soldier on the left is L. Owen Rolofson, Diane’s great uncle.  The picture was taken in Germany, WWI. 

 Diane’s Grandparents - Wayne and Alice Rolofson - Sometime in the 30’s on Indian.
