I Feel Sleepy



en route: central city, NE; yankton, SD; de smet, SD-- Saying "I feel sleepy" to each other pretty much sums up the day's conversational content. Unending fields of corn (and soybeans, too-- the story of our nation) have a soporific effect after so many days.

That being the case, we'll get right to the point.

Our main activities on 7/30/07:
-- Trying to stay awake
-- Stopping to view the Lone Tree historic marker outside Central City, NE as sleep prevention strategy. Yes. This memorializes the one tree that once existed here.
-- Wondering why the fuse controlling the dome light blew (continued from yesterday and day before)
-- Realizing--in South Dakota-- that we left the camera at the Lone Tree historic marker

Highlights:
-- Waffles for breakfast at the hotel
-- Wireless access for the computer
-- Anticipation of reaching De Smet!!!
-- Crossing the Missouri River

Observation:
-- Karen has had enough of Nebraska
