June 24--Iowa to Nebraska

Did the blue highways through some of Iowa, to Interstate 80, and along to Nebraska today. Lots and lots of cornfields. Stopped for the night at Mahoney State Park. Like Iowa State Parks, these sites had electric, but no water. Saw people lugging jugs of water from the bath house. It's a beautiful park, on the river, and has a lodge and theater!

Went in to Lincoln, NE, this morning and toured the International Quilt Study Center & Museum. The old quilts on display were really beautiful. Currently they have a Japanese quilt display going on also; those are really unusual. Some are like our traditional quilts, and some are very different. All took a lot of skill and time.
This is the sculpture at the entrance to the museum.

Caught this on I80 today. What a landmark!

It's the arch in Kearney, NE.
