A Ride on the MoPac
6 September 2004
We started at Platte River State Park. We drove out there, and Sallie drove the car back home.
The Platte River Bridge is one of the nicest bicycle/pedestrian-only bridges in the country.
This was Wanda's first real ride on her new bike.

Some travel on county roads is required.

Wanda found the "little girls' room."
No doubt we're in Nebraska.
Each of us had a flat tire.
