We left camp this morning to do a little exploring. First stop was for breakfast at the Oregon Trail Trading Post in Lewellen, NE. They do have an attached cafe and breakfast was really good!
From there we drove to Ash Hollow State Historical Park, also know has Windlass Hill.
You can still see the wagon wheel ruts from the early settlers.
From there we drove to Ogallala, NE, the closest town to our campground. We checked out the laundromat and checked out this "Old West Town", although it was closed.
The last stop of the morning tour was the Lake McConaughy State Recreation Area Visitor Center.
We watched an interesting short movie about the lake and the dam that made it.
Back at camp we sat outside in the shade, it was 92 again! The wind here never stops, but it sure makes the temps bearable.
We had some really good thunderstorms in the evening with lots of lightning.
