We spent Day 8 in downtown Chicago. Our hotel is right on Michigan Avenue and a block from the major attractions. The day was mostly cloudy and windy with temperatures in the low thirties falling to twenties in the evening. We spent time in the Shedd Aquarium indoors for the most part of the day. The skyline appears perfect from the Grant Park, although there is also a river tour from the Navy Pier which could give you the same view.

About 9 hours of drive, and about 700 miles East of Cheyenne, WY, we arrived in Council Bluffs, Iowa, about 10 minutes drive from Omaha, Nebraska. We have covered the entire state of Nebraska, East to West, about 550 miles, in about 7 drive hours. The bright sunshine and low winds were especially helpful.

We drove for over 700 miles from Jackson Hole, WY to the south east corner to Cheyenne, WY. The day had been brilliant, sunny, blue skies and for the most part with very low winds. Though the temperature remained in single digits, the sun made it warm enough for a comfortable drive.

Assuming that 26 East might have some remnant snow, we decided to take the alternate route 189/191 South to I-80 E just past Rocky Springs. Although I-189/191 …
