Wow. My only experience of driving through Nebraska (December 1980) was ... On I-80 the snow is falling sideways my windshield wipers are frozen to the windshield and are useless, so follow a truck between reflectors on poles which try to tell us where the road is because otherwise you're stuck.
We didn't get stuck.
Now, I wanna' go back and see the good stuff! :-D Thank you for the review!!! B&S '87 Westy 'Esmerelda Blanc' SoCal
