Thanks, Matt

I'm taking a break on the downslope of a bridge where I even have wi-fi!

So last night I took a road break near an old Army base in Western NebraskA where I hit a bump and a trailer fender fell off. So I fixed it on a slight hill but the wind prevented me coasting enough to start the engine. SO I spent the night at Sioux Meadows (formerly Souix Army Depot. I walked around a bit and pictured it was 1944.

This morning I flagged a truck tow and the driver drove his John Deere over and tow started me.

It's 11:22 AM and I have been driving since I left at 7 AM. Now half-way thru NebraskA and about 5 hours from Omaha. I'm going to ncheck my map to see if the VW place to mention or Al Brase is on the way. Al is a Diesel Vanagon guy and I need a Diesel Vanagon starter.

Since he lives in Iowa this makes sense.
