Adventures with no good beer

Well, tonight we are in Lexington, Nebr. Tomorrow we will stop in Kearney and visit with my brother Don; then on to Grand Island and visit other family there. Grand Island was where I was born. Yesterday we had a good tailwind, but mechanical problems forced us to call a shorter day then we desired and stayed at North Platte, today was a mixture of headwind, sidewind, and rain. 62 miles today. Our search for a good beer in Nebraska continues, and good coffee, and toilets that work on first flush. Other than that, it has been an adventure. The continued amazing thing is the very nice and hospitable people we meet, every day. We are now over half way. In Cozad, Nebr they state they are the 100th Meridian, thus we are now offically in the Eastern half of the US. Weather has been more than interesting, keeping a constant eye on the severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings, so far we have been on the edge of most of them. We get wet and wind, but have not had to seek shelter yet. So.....we continue on, looking forward to the next day!! John
