Day 3 we headed across Nebraska.  We picked up Runzas in Grand
Island for lunch, yumm!  This one seemed to have extra cabbage
and spices, maybe the best one I’ve ever had.

Despite living much of my life in Nebraska (plus spending a
fair bit of time in the panhandle), I’d never been to Lake
McConaughy before.  The approach to and drive across the dam
was most impressive, very scenic.

 
 Nice looking area.  Beautiful sandy beaches on that Lake.  You
 do any fishing?

Only a tiny bit back in the bad old days when I'd do all kinds of
crazy shit after the bars closed.

We ended up at Prairie View RV Park on the north side of the
lake. The campground itself was pretty basic.  No office, and
when I finally found a number to call (after driving around
the campground for a while) they said to just pick any site. 
We could not see the lake from camp, which was disappointing.

 
 That's interesting.  Did you otherwise have good services like
 water and electricity.  Dump station?

It was full hookups, and they all worked just fine.  The place was
clean enough too.
