You're taking your life in your hands driving thru Iowa! I admit MN has some awful drivers, but Iwegians are the worst left land road hogs in the USA.

After an evening in Winterset, we set up camp in a lodge at a nearby K.O.A. We hit the road this morning. Might make it to Ogallala, NE or might just tough it out and head home not to sure yet.

We did end up stopping in Ogallala, NE and checked out lake McConaughy. We then went to Ft. COLLINS, CO stayed the night with family and then made it home Saturday the 18th.

Size:  53.2 KB this tripped me out. Super Unleaded(89,$3.659) was cheaper than regular(87,$3.759).

I also mentioned that my fuel milage was off... no offense but you guys over there must have horrible quality gas. I mentioned i got 26-32 over there. Once in CO we topped off putting 3/4 a tank in and was back up to 34-36 average on the blended tank. I even put octane booster in over that way. Left me a little suprised. All in all was a nice trip!!!

My wife would kill me if we went on vacation and I took that many car shots. I love it.
