Day 59 Tuesday September 17. Bill's 71st birthday.
We celebrated this birthday with another day of driving. It started poorly: we have a list of deceased relatives of Judy for whom we want to find their graves. First our GPS took us to the Penitentiary in Leavenworth rather than the military cemetery. Then we almost got stuck on two roads in rural Nebraska looking for another cemetery. The car was coated with mud. Finally we reached Holy Sepulchre Cemetery in Omaha where three fellows helped us find all the persons Judy was looking for. They actually had to unearth one tombstone. Finally we ended up at the Honey Creek Cemetery in rural Pottawattamie County! Iowa. At this lovely pastoral setting, we found a batch of her relatives. All these adventures made us late getting to Sioux City. So we ate a salad at HyVee, found a motel and collapsed.
