Slow start, long boring drive, the usual start to a road trip.
Freeways are great for covering long distances quickly, but as soon as you're anywhere, it's better to get off onto back roads.
On the two-lanes, you're not insulated from your surroundings. You can stop pretty much anywhere you see something interesting. There are restaurants, motels and stores that aren't the same ones you see at every other freeway exit.
Anyway, an easy drive except for strong winds, down to I-80 and west through half on Nebraska.
Around dusk, I got off the interstate and angled south. I'll be cutting through a bit of Kansas and then the grasslands of SE Colorado tomorrow.
