Road Trip 2009: O'Neill, Nebraska - Continued

Dinner at the Blarney Stone Restaurant was better than expected; white linen table clothes over maroon, excellent food at excellent prices and overly generous drinks.

We had a very nice young waitress who grew up here in O'Neill, just graduated from High School and is heading to college in the Fall. We compensated for the very reasonable meal prices by contributing to her college fund with the gratuity.

The skies are amazing; not sure if we are in for thunder and lightning or tornados as predicted earlier but it makes for weather magic.

We're back in the room watching the finals of American Idol. A great day, a great trip.
