Had a good traveIling day. Had dinner in Lincoln - ate at IHOP, and I enjoyed a really nice grilled chicken sandwich with sun-dried tomatoes.

We had a bit of energy left, so we drove the extra hour to Omaha where we found a clean, comfortable non-smoking room to crash in for the night.

Selden lives just down the road, but the schedule won't permit another layover this time - maybe on the way back? We'll have to see which route I take.

Many, many construction sites along the way. Only one did we actually see anyone working. My theory: That's how they store all those millions of cones... it's cheaper than a warehouse.

It's nice to have two drivers. When I drive alone, I have to pull over for a lot of 15-minute naps. Plus the company is good, and every time I go on a road trip with the Cub - the last one was in 2005 - I learn about the latest music. By the end of the trip I can recognize a lot of bands... too bad I forget promptly, because it's not what I habitually listen to.

Who knows what tomorrow will bring?

Every time someone mentions IHOP, I have to remind myself that it has nothing to do with software or furniture. I realize that "International House of Pancakes" is a, well, mouthful, but the acronym just isn't appetizing.

yay! roadtrip!
IHOP must have changed their menu since I was there haha

New music is good, I'm a new music addict. My girlfriend is hopelessly trapped in the 80's and it's a constant battle for the radio in the car.
