Panorama Point (Nebraska Highpoint)

Now that the semester has finished, I needed to get out of the house and have an adventure.  So, Sy and I decided to head out on a road trip to bag a couple more state highpoints.

We started from Provo, UT on Sunday afternoon and arrived in Cheyenne, WY (just west of the highpoint) six hours later.  I had never really stopped in Cheyenne before and liked the little capitol town. We checked out the famous 8ft high boots in the park in town and then ate at Sanford Pub & Grill - a great choice.

The next morning we got up early, took a side trip to see some llamas and goats....

...and then headed to the highpoint.  Even though my instructions were good and we didn't make any wrong turns, it was still easy to get nervous traveling more than 20 miles on dirt roads passing only the occasional farm house.
Eventually we made it.  I guess that means Sy has his first highpoint!  We didn't wait around much though because we wanted to head south and hit the Kansas highpoint later that day.
