Day Two

Left Kearney at 7:47.

we stayed for free in Kearney--12,000 points on our Choice Privileges account. Overcast weather to east-got sunnier as we traveled west.
Stopped at Cozad NE for gas--took forever--had the personal attention of "Jose" the attendant.
mile 21431 time changed to Mountain Standard

crossed into Colorado at 9:45--We're hungry
stopped at Roggen CO nothing to eat in Roggen--actually the only thing we saw in Roggen was an elderly couple painting their fence. If Carrie wants to see a ghost town--this may be it.


stopped at Hudson, CO Found a Subway. Hudson is a veritable metropolis with a plethora of stop signs.

Carrie's neighbor, Todd, helped Jim carry in the Clavinova. Put it together with only one problem--the electrical clip to connect pedals to computer in piano--went back into the leg--had to get Carrie's only wire coat hangar to poke it back thru. Carrie then played the piano--the trip was worth it.

Carrie went to class--when she came home we went to Lik's for ice cream.

Carrie made Helen ice the toe that got caught in the carpet attachment of her vacuum.
