Beacon RV Park, St. Joseph, MO, to KOA Gothenburg, NEThis morning we headed out in a cold, misty rain.  Didn’t last long though, but the clouds hung around.  Continued north on I29 which is a pretty drive of rolling hills interspersed with large fields of neatly planted crops.  And off to the west were the bluffs along the Missouri.  Took Interstate 2 west and crossed the Missouri into Nebraska and shortly after that the clouds dispersed revealing a beautiful blue sky.  Stopped in Lincoln, NE, for food and fuel.  Then Mike took over driving.  The drive between Lincoln and Gothenburg was a pretty flat and nondescript landscape of farmers’ fields.  But, alas!  There is an original Pony Express Station here in Gothenburg.  We probably won’t go see it since we weren’t planning on unhooking.  Left at 8:45 this morning and arrived here and were set up by 3:30.  55 when we left St. Joe and 73 here in Gothenburg.
