This trip was too short but we did get to spend time with friends and family. On top of that I got to cross another state off my list! This is not a state I expected to be able to check off so soon, partly due to the distance. Nebraska was a lot of corn

Bear was actually supposed to be with us on part of this trip. However, he and the dog of the family members we were staying with did not get along. Both dogs are healthy, no damage done but Bear did end up spending the trip in Kansas with Keltin’s parents being spoiled. He loved it.
