We left Haskell, TX and drove to Big Spring, TX. We are in Texas RV Park of Big Spring. The host asked if we would like to work camp here. On our way here we saw regular gas for $2.14 a gallon and diesel for $3.25 at the same station. This is an expensive park, $33.00 per night.

Yesterday we went into downtown Lincoln Nebraska and did some sightseeing. We visited the Haymarket district. There was an old locomotive NO. 710. It was the first locomotive that came to Lincoln NE. We visited a store that sold licorice made in many different countries. They let us sample anything we wanted.

We drove up to the State Capitol building. Then we drove to the Sunken Gardens. This was a beautiful sight with all the pretty flowers min bloom
