| Our view from the trailer when we woke up. Scotts Bluff is a remarkable landmark. |
 |
| We stopped at Carhenge near Alliance, NE Installed in 1987 by Jim Reinder and his family. This place made me smile. People are so creative. He wanted to recreate Stonehenge and decided to use what was available, old cars. |
 |
| Next stop, The Museum of the Fur Trade near Chadron, NE. This is a beautifully done educational facility. Fur trading has been conducted for thousands of years in all parts of the world. Also, fur traders were on the north American continent long before the settlers. |
 |
| Native Americans traded furs for beads. They made beautiful beaded garments. |
 |
| These furs came from Siberia. They were traded for beaver and buffalo hides. |
 |
| Calico fabric was traded for furs as well. What a way to pay for your fabrics. |
