We took a short break from driving yesterday so Bob wouldn’t have to drive, and to celebrate his birthday. We decided to visit a Granite City Food & Brewery, which apparently is a chain with locations in 11 states. Reviews were good and so we gave it a try.
Bob had a turkey burger with pepper jack cheese, avocado, arugula, and red onion, plus waffle fries. I had an Impossible Burger and green beans with almonds, and we both enjoyed our lunch very much. The beer was good, too! As we were getting ready to leave we asked our waitress if she would mind taking our picture since it was Bob’s birthday, and she said, “Wait—don’t leave yet!” And ran off, reappearing a few minutes later with a birthday dessert. It was like a hot, soft chocolate chip cookie topped with vanilla ice cream. Yum!
We have been camping at the Lancaster Event Center for two nights in Lincoln, NE, which is a place we’ve stayed at before. While there’s only water and electrical hookups, the manager gave us the code for the (free) laundry which is usually reserved for people staying a week or longer. That allowed us to wash all our clothes and not overfill the gray water tank.
Today we are driving across Nebraska, 289 miles to Ogallala and changing time zones again. We’ll be on mountain time, two hours behind eastern time for anyone who may want to call us.
