I'd add the 9th day but I can't find the disk. Oh well, here is what I do have. Hope you enjoy.

Awesome pics.  Had no idea that the hills were as high as shown in the middle pics.

Thanks for posting.  I never grow tired of looking at the Sand Hills of Nebraska.  What a special, serene place.

Gene - +1 on the Trappisters Rochefort.  Enjoyed many with my steak on Friday night!!

Jaeger - really looking forward to the pictures.  Have been telling people about it, but was an idiot and did not take any pictures myself.

Great pictures. I will try to get around to uploading some of mine this week.

I only have one question, and it's for Mac. In Eric's fourth to last pic, why is everybody standing around listening to me talk? I don't remember wearing jeans on the trip, either... Weird.

You're damn right about that iPhone camera, Jaeger! (It is now retired, btw.)

Here's one of my favorites from day 9.

I tell people I was born in Nebraska, and they go "gee, I'm sorry".

If they only knew....

Last year, when I told friends that I was driving from Philly to play golf in Nebraska (and South Dakota), I was looked at with that facial expression that you know implies, "Are you crazy?".

Honestly, I wasn't sure either, until I got there (I had only been on I-80 in Nebraska).  I'm now a total convert to the joys of Nebraska golf and her great people. 

Thanks for the great pictures!
