Like my clarinet.

20th Century Veterans Memorial, North Platte, NE























From December 25, 1941 until April 1, 1946 more than 6 million servicemen and women who traveled through Nebraska during World War II were met by volunteers who prepared and served sandwiches, coffee, cookies, cakes, and other homemade ‘goodies’ during stops there.


On our way to Cheyenne, WY. Green (corn) and Gold (wheat) fields. The rolling hills of Iowa have flattened in Nebraska.

We stayed at Pilot Truck Center. Been another full day of discovery.
