Day 36 - Alma, NE to McCook, NE

75 Miles

Our ride into McCook was relatively uneventful. We had a waterballoon fight at lunch that was untimely due to the cold rain but what can you do? Haha, we also took some fun and creative hay bail pictures!

Scandalous hay bail shoot

We were all anxious to get to our "host" because for the first time of the trip we were camping! Woo! Little did we know what camping Bike & Build style means...

This is what it means: pitching 6 tents at a "campground" (i.e. highway rest stop) 9 people in 7 person tents, bins and bikes under tarps and trees, and extreme dampness due to the fierce lightning storms of the midwest. Haha. In all seriousness, we truly had a good time. We were able to get some serious donation magic (props to Kristy and Nicole!) and made a campfire and chillaxed with smores for the night. As much as we all love and are so appreciative of all of our hosts, it was nice to just hang out with each other in a really relaxed atmosphere. It was quite lovely :)


We love snuggle puddles - especially by the campfire!
