Day 1 done

Man Wyoming is the most boring, depressing, crap state in the world, Nebraska isn't really any better, at least it's green though, had some awesome rolling hills too.

Wyoming was nothing but plains, deserts, hills. No towns, no cities, just nothingness, for hours and hours and hundreds of miles it was nothing, abandoned and boarded up gas stations littered the side of the roads, there were countless pull off areas for truckers, just pull offs with nothing there.

Nebraska was awesome at first, awesome looking rolling hills, reminded me of pics of China.

Then it got boring, flat green farm lands, then night came and I couldn't see a freaking thing.. for a few hours I drove at night, I ended up doing 90-95 for a long while because I just wanted to get to the hotel.

It took 11 hours to get there, freaking 11 hours... two more hours than google maps estimated. I'm seriously going to stop at a Hotel the second I get tired now, I don't care how many days it takes, don't care how many hotels I have to stay at.

The Hotel is awesome though, 54 bucks for tonight? Epic. I wont want to leave in the morning, I'm so comfy and at peace.

While my car made it just fine, I was paranoid the entire time, every sounds or thunk or jerk would immediately trigger my paranoia mode and I'd stress out for a good 50 miles over if there was something wrong with the car.

Going to be getting up as early as I can tomorrow so I don't have to drive at night again, it's not fun driving in like pitch blackness in unfamiliar territory, especially since there's like NO towns or cities around for hundreds of miles, no lights to guide you.

One AWESOME thing about that area though, it's so high up, clouds are like so low, and at night I was completely blown away by the moon.

the moon at this altitude, it looked like it was like hovering above the ground in the distance, and it was blood red..i t was intense, I kept thinking it was fake or something, like someone had a big moon sign or something, freaking awesome, I recorded it but you cant even tell at all on the video gosh dang it.

Sobis been in hibernation mode, I tried giving him water just now and he's just bluhh, I put him under the laptop right now to warm him up.

My body aaaches, can't wait to sleep, gonna hate waking up.

  7. Funny thing, I'm from North Platte, NE and was on my way home for fall break yesterday. We may have passed each other on the interstate. What city did you end up stopping in anyway?

  10. I would laugh if something scary came up while on the road at night for ya.Like a UFO abduction or like a monster or something(kobi becoming the next gawdzilla maybe?)or even a group of bikers came up all around the car bashing it with stuff and ripping off stuff in your trunk

  14. Hope your birthday was good! My parents live in Bellevue which is basically right outside of Omaha, NE and that area is beautiful. I had always though Nebraska was nothing but corn fields but once you get to the Nebraska/Iowa border, it's nice. Iowa is terrible, hope you don't go through there at all. Best of luck traveling!

  16. Don't worry Austin, once you hit Florida then you'll love it, if you don't mind the rains and hot weather. If that worries you then you can try visiting the theme parks like Disney's,Universal's, the new Lego Land, etc etc.

  18. If ever you find yourself passing through Mississippi - you're more than welcome to crash at my place if you don't want to pay for another motel room. I really think what you're doing is awesome. Safe travels, sir.
