I stopped in Wheatland only to discover, on Hotels.com, that the several motels there were all booked. But a room was available at Glendo, a tiny town an hour north, so I booked it. Howard's is part of a gas station/convenience store, although physically separate and about 100 yards away. I checked in at the gas station, which was quick and easy. There are only about six motel units, in two small buildings. They seem to be new and my room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. There were, however, two things that were disagreeable. First, the entire complex was unpaved and only covered with gravel, not paved. Second, there is a railroad track about 50 feet away. The first time a train came through, in the middle of the night, I woke up with a "what the h*ll?" experience. It seemed like a UFO had landed on the roof. Once I figured out what was happening it was cool, but I probably woke up every time a train ran by.
