July 28th
130 miles today. extremely windy when we started out. it got windier. by two o clock we had only gone 55 miles, which was a bad sign. then the wind died down a bit and we were able to start moving. We put on another 80 miles before nine o clock that night.
It was dark and we smelled bad. As we got into Gibbon we found an old folks home called "the good samaritan"... a sign! They let us take showers... thanks! Now we are camped in a park.
Tomorrow we hope to pull to Lincoln. another heroic day. Nebraska is corn, trains and smelly trucks.
