We left Harlan about on time but I forgot my phone. Someone at the hotel drove it out to us. Thank goodness. Iowa is indeed hilly but they aren't monsters. Only big enough to make you keep going forward not backward.
We stopped in Logan to rest and figure out the route. The thirty is really crowded so we didn't want to continue on it. We found some paved county roads, rare in Iowa, and we stopped again in Modale. At our rest in Logan we were given a free loaf if wonderbread because it was expired. In Modale a wonderbread truck driver gave us a hearty wheat whole grain loaf. Pretty nice. We chatted for a while. He was a scout leader during the tornado in Omaha last year. We talked about that a moment. He's had a couple close calls in the wonderbread truck.
When we got to our hotel in Blair we saw the Vortex project on the weather channel. They were tracking the storms in Goshen county Wyoming. I guess we're in the danger zone now until we get to Casper, so we'll be watching the storms closely now. Feel free to send us text message updates about the weather. We hope to get through Nebraska in a week but we'll stop as necessary.
Overall we are fine but tired and tired.
