August 11th, No Platte NB

We drove through Nebraska all day and actually we're surprised by how beautiful it all was. I don't know what we were expecting but it was different by far. We traveled along the Great Platte Valley all along 80 and stayed in North Platte. The park was nice, lot's of trees with the loudest insects we've ever heard, no idea what they are but man were they loud, and sounded like electricity if that makes sense. We set everything up and almost immediately put everything away as dark black clouds set in.
