Hello from Rawlins, Wyoming!
It has been a few weeks since our last post. Life got in the way, and we had to put our trip on pause, but we are excited to be back on the road! During the pause, we kept the Airstream at the Top of Georgia - one of our favorite places - and were able to spend a little extra time there.
We departed north Georgia on Saturday morning - Flag Day! We made it to Paducah, Kentucky and stayed in a Cracker Barrel parking lot. On Sunday we drove to Kansas City and stayed in a Bass Pro Shops parking lot. Both nights worked out well - convenient, and the price is right! On night #3, we stayed at a Harvest Host property - the Crazy Y Farm - in Gothenburg, Nebraska - and it was really cool! The owners were gracious and friendly, and it was so peaceful and beautiful. We even had some weather come in - fortunately, it stayed north of us but made for a beautiful and dramatic sky!
This morning, we left Gothenburg and are now in Rawlins, Wyoming. For the past 3 days, we've done about 400 miles each day. As you can imagine, we have made frequent stops at the Love's Travel Stop to fuel up! We are big fans of Love's - their staff is friendly, and restrooms are clean!
The landscape along the way has been so beautiful. Some people may find it boring, but I find it so refreshing to see so much wide-open space and travel through the heartland of the country.
Paul got a go-pro recently and did a few time-lapse videos our trek today. This link is of our leaving Gothenburg and this one is going on I-80 through western Nebraska. Below are a few pics of the scenery along the way.
