9-20-09 left Wilderness 8:30 AM

pictures coming
For $27 nite-best place so far to stay :o)
heading towards Omaha, Nebraska left at 8:30 AM weather was a little foggy and some wind-prices for gas has been so varied from $2.50 to $2.16 gal we're gonna drive as far as we can and stop as close to Omaha as we can-we're trying to get to Dakotas we have three days of traveling ahead of us.
Needed to find a Wal Mart-needed some essentials-our GPS took us to a little town which happened to take us over a little bridge in Bellevue City, Nebraska and when going over the bridge there was this adorable city campgrounds so you got it-we doubled back and that's where we camped last night. It was right on the Missouri River and called Haworth Park and only costs $20 a night and run by the city-very clean too with ceramic bathrooms & handicapped too
It would've been the perfect night, EXCEPT....poor little bud-we didn't even disconnect because it was such a serene and picturesque area that we wanted to take him out and run and play with him because he'd been stuck in the car all day long-so we put the leash on and took him down by the boats and water and next thing you know he's falling down and biting at his paws and when I pick him up he's got hundreds of little burrs all over his paws and in his pads and undercoat-it took us forever to cut and chop his hair and pull those things out of his fur......poor little thing, not saying how many splinters Joe and I got in our fingers working on him all that time. Thank God I brought all his clippers and snips with from home-and thank God there were two of us to work on him because it definitely was a two person job to hold him down while the other clips and cuts-he was sooooo stinkin good too!
