Hastings Air Force Station, Abandoned 1968, Hastings NE, May 7, 2011

Gotcha!

At the filling station this morning, I punched the button for the lowest grade, started pumping, then noticed the price was $0.15 higher than advertised. Grumbling I quite the fill-up. It seems the Lowest price is for the mid-grade. By a lot. That's deceptive I concluded. Later I continued my fill-up at a station of another brand in another town, Hastings NE, and surprise surprise the same pricing scheme holds. What gives?

DLD State Recreation Area

What a neat find. A tiny little recreation area with a few nice level spots to camp. And unused and unmaintained at that. My kind of place. Much quieter than one of Wally's parking lots and the same price at that - $0.00.

And the dandelions are fresh! Yum.
