I was rewarded with a speeding ticket in Ogallala County. I might have been a little heavy on the gas pedal, but there is some weird time warp going on in western Nebraska. The Wyoming border is always a couple of hours away, and then suddenly Cheyenne.; 10/4/19, 4:13 PM

I once did the Denver to Chicago drive in one day with three small kids and a new dog (and without my wife who had flown ahead).

We left on a Sunday morning in December at around 6 am, listened to football almost all the way. The Broncos game (last of the season) got us through most of Nebraska.

AND, we drove back a week later (we had driven out for a death in my wife's family) and on that drive listened to the famous Bills comeback playoff game while cautiously driving on slick and icy roads in Iowa.; 10/4/19, 5:20 PM

He's lulling you to sleep with beautiful, carbon-laden sunsets

I can't imagine trying to do ANYTHING as the only adult in charge of 3 little kids and a dog... even to just take care of them inside my own home. I used to drive with 2 little kids all the way across the county (Madison to Florida). But 3 plus a dog!!!; 10/4/19, 5:51 PM
