The next morning (day 14) we packed up and drove the rest of the 
way across Nebraska, swinging back up to Valentine, taking scenic 
highway 20 for some time, and landing near Onawa, IA.  As we got 
into eastern Nebraska and for a good part of western Iowa, we had 
hill after steep hill to climb.  These were at times a bit much 
for the Acadia, and I would often end up driving less than 50 mph 
so it wouldn’t be running at crazy rpms.

This campsite was at Lewis and Clark Lake State Park, along an old 
ox bow of the Missouri River.  No bath house, but it was 
reasonably scenic and we had a nice campfire...
