We spent last week in Omaha (or thereabouts). We went to a KOA in Gretna, which was excellent. We tent-camped the first night, and then spent five nights in a Cabin. We were visited on Tuesday afternoon by Jen Courtney and her two daughters, and then went to their house for dinner that evening. We learned a new game called ‘Loser’, which was a hoot. On Thursday, Amanda’s parents came down from North Platte, and we spent the rest of the weekend in a motel with them. On Saturday we visited the Henry Doorly Zoo, which was phenomenal.

We arrived at around 9:00 A.M. and didn’t leave until after 6:00 P.M. Even still, we had to skip a whole section of the zoo because we were too wore out by then. On Sunday, we visited the Lauritzen Botanical Gardens, which were gorgeous.

We returned north on Sunday afternoon.
