Harry Chinese Tornados

Left Sturgis by way of short cut once the rain had supsided and planned on getting to somewhere in Nebraska by night fall. Saw the sites along the way: Rushmore, kicking-falling-standing-horse, and then had 100miles of open country highway with one else on it and a raging lightning storm chasing us all the way. Along the way I made a mental note to tell Luke that I wanted Chinese buffet after we had just passed through a town around noon that had one. When we reached Alliance NE, we stopped in at the gas station and asked if they had one. Yeah, they did and as faith would have it, it was located just accross the street from the holiday inn express, brilliant. The attendant did warn us though that they were on tornado watch. Flabbergasted we thought to our selves how could this get any better. It did Harry Potter half blood prince started at 7:30 bingo we had found the greatest place that Nebraska had to offer. After way to much hot and sour chicken and soft serve and with HP now in our back pocket we took a gravel road to its end and found solice in another rainy night but with Boulder jsut on the Horizon
