May 13 & 14 - - Des Moines to Home


This if the final update to our EPIC Road Trip.

On Sunday morning we celebrated Mother's Day with a gift. 


We then attended church in the Waukee Ward and headed for North Platte Nebraska (a drive of about 5 1/2 hours).



We arrived in North Platte around 5:30, had dinner and stopped at Dairy Queen for a celebration Blizzard and then relaxed for the evening.

On Monday morning we headed for home ... arriving at about 1:00 p.m.


Total miles for the trip was just over 8,600.

We learned a lot, better understand out ancestors and feel more connected with them.

Our experiences included visiting 3 Civil War sites, 6 church history sites, an uncounted number of cemeteries, museums, town clerk offices, etc.

We are still in love ... after almost 54 years.
