So, no post yesterday, as we spent the day fighting 30-60mph winds, and driving rain. We got into Lincoln very late, set up in a hurry, and rushed off to meet the fam. One bright spot was the fireflies that greeted us as we returned to camp!

Speaking of which, Camp A Way RV Park in Lincoln is a GEM! It's a beautiful older park with dense vegetation (although well manicured to avoid issues), really nice level sites, and lots of amenities!

Today was Lincoln, NE to St Louis, MO. Our goal was to visit the Gateway Arch, one of the boss' bucket list items. I spent time in St. Louis during my working life, but was happy to return. We spent some time touring the park and the arch, and then knocked back some yummy drinks along with some chips and queso at Mas Tequila Cantina, right next to Arch Park.

We're staying the the Draft King Casino RV Park on the Illinois side of the Mississippi, just across from the arch. The view of the arch and it's location near to the city are about all this place has to recommend it. It's all asphalt, no vegetation, and totally unstaffed. You enter with a gate code, and you're on your own. I have no reason to gripe, as I knew this going in and chose the place because it's close to where we want to go, and easy to access I-70, but if you're thinking of staying here, know what you're getting.

Tomorrow we're off to Nashville. Mileage is much shorter from St. Louis, and we're spending some extra time in Pigeon Forge after Nashville.
