Go Big Red. GO. BIG. RED.
If you have spent any time on the site, you know I’m a born and bred Nebraska Cornhusker.
And as bleeding Husker Red girl, there is nothing that makes my heart go pitter-patter more than a trip back home.
We love to visit Omaha. We go every year. We hit the Omaha Children’s Zoo, Old Market, Valentino’s, Runza (but there is one here now), and Strategic Air and Space Museum.
At only three hours away, it is the perfect distance for a weekend getaway.

abby craig says
I havent been to Omaha before, but one of my favorite Counting Crows songs talks about Omaha, making it somewhere I have been meaning to get to. Also, I just drove through NE on my way home from visiting family in Oregon and I bought a Cornhuskers backscratcher on the way. Found it at a delightful little truck stop, lol. This was in spite of being a huge Oregon Ducks fan, therefore making Nebraska my official midwest team of choice (we’ve lived in MO for 2 years now, we really needed to have a midwest team to cheer on and I really needed a backscratcher, so it all worked out).
abby craig says
Oh and I have been in Like with you for some time now on FB.
