After deciding that the same old hanging out and watching movies had gotten old, we made a plan to find a number of adventures to embark on together. Here we will share with you the adventures we have completed and all of them are in either Iowa and Nebraska! We hope you enjoy and try some of them out yourself! God bless!

Alex's 1st Sandhills Adventure: The Road Trip




320 miles and 6 hours in the car, longer than any trip we have taken before. Many miles can go by without seeing a car.  The views are spectacular, there is nothing like getting to the top of a hill and being able to see the hills roll for miles.


Both of the puppies have come to love car rides, even though much of what they do is sleep. They have managed to figure out the whole "head out of the window" thing, and now like doing that when going through small towns.
They were pretty tired after all the excitement

This was Alex's first time driving out to the Valentine area. I've made the trek a few times to visit the ranch I work for, but this time he got to go. It was definitely nice to not be driving the whole way by myself! There isn't any cell reception on many of the roads there, so the company was welcome.
The roads are scenic most of the time and we were able to capture a number of impressive landscapes while on the road. The clouds, cows, hills, and curves were very intriguing. Check out a few more of our favorites below.
