We had a great time with Lela and Gary, but we left them after breakfast. She and Will were still going around about the proper way to give directions - she says corner, Will says intersection. After a morning on the road, we had lunch at Niobrara State Park with a panoramic view that overlooked the Missouri River. The view was great and it was good that we are all large people, because the wind kept attempting to blow us all away! As we headed down the road, we stopped and took a little walk to see the state’s highest waterfall at Smith Falls State Park. Later we drove through the Fort Niobrara Wildlife preserve, seeing mostly elk and prairie dogs. We spent the night in Valentine, where they really play up their name. It’s a good thing I like hearts. 
We went to dinner at a local restaurant, and the boys decided a man was stalking us, because they had seen him at the falls, the motel, and the restaurant. Nick knocked over a full glass of water and we were amazed at Will’s quick reflexes as ice water splattered toward him. Now Will is the only one who hasn’t spilled water on this trip…We’re waiting.
