Nose Bleed!!

Holy Cow! We're so high up on the map we're getting altitude sickness. ;)
Today we left the coach at Winnebago to get the work done, at least we hope to. We'll see how much is under warrenty and how much the rest costs in real dollars. It was hard to see a serviceman drive it off around behind the building. But now we're heading across the north plains to S. Dakota in the car. The wind is blowing straight out of the west, hard, with grey clouds moving across the sky. The country is really beautiful, lots of farms with corn and maybe soybeans? There are literally thousands and thousands of acres of corn. It must be for methanol fuel since it is left on the stalk to brown before harvesting. (What do I know, though?) Another thing that is really cool here is the windmill farms. These are HUGE windmils and we'll pass by an area that will have 50 - 60 windmills all turning at the same rate, then we'll pass by another field a few miles futher on. Makes sense to me, why don't we have them along the coast? We had to put a cover on the bed last night! it got cold! Today we're wearing jeans and long sleeves and a coat when we're outside. The temp is probably only 55 - 65 but the wind chill seems colder, We just aren't, and don't want to be, used to cold. Who knows though, we just might end up in an area that is cold for part of our season.
Later.....
