Road trip to Michigan

Across the plains there were a lot of farm homes and about a mile between the next one, the land was really flat, it was so fun to see. I have never been this far east before.
As we traveled across the country we saw a lot of wind farms, especially in Wyoming and Nebraska

We stayed in Lincoln Nebraska with a friend of Graydon's
They were very kind to let us stay there.



The Nebraska State Capitol was built by the Army core of engineers during the depression, to help get people back to work.
I was really excited to see the Mississippi river, We crossed it over a bridge and I took a video of it. this is a swamp by it.
It was really neat to see.
