It’s been awhile since I’ve really explored Nebraska’s “Bohemian Alps,” a fairly isolated landscape of rolling hills in Butler and Saunders counties where the first Vavaks to come to this state settled. I spent a warm Sunday wandering gravel roads, up and down the steep Platte River bluffs, and looking for details in the small towns scattered around the hilly country.

Photographs of Central Iowa on a quiet Sunday after an incredibly hazy, loud, and strange Fourth Of July.
