My sister in law, Cindy, is from Lincoln, so she told me some great things to do there. Here are some of my favorites.

 

  • Pioneers Park was expansive and even during Covid, you can drive around and enjoy the sights from your vehicle. If you can, Drive to the Nature Center
  • You’ll notice some nice Golf courses, flat breezy
  • Red cars a lot in Nebraska, and lots of Barns
  • What about Nature? Elk, bison, turtles, frogs, Nature center has 600 acres of prarie, wetlands, and woodlands plus 8 miles of hiking.
  • University of Nebraska, downtown, walking city, capital of Nebraska.
  • SAC Museum
  • Runza Hamburger, Valentino’s Pizza
  • Lincoln Highway
  • Rails to trails

Travel Planning: Ecuador

 Ecuador: planning Listener Story Spotlight I want to tell you about a listener named Pat who loves to take 40-minute walks. She does one every day. We have traveled together to Spain and have been ski buddies for over 10 years. She's a superb figure skater and loves cats. Maybe you even know my friend. Her last name is Brown, inspiring me to go to the Galapagos Islands this year. Thanks, Pat, for that encouragement.   The FAQ for today is:  How do you choose your outfits for weather conditions that constantly change? The answer is more straightforward than you think: It's basic colors, basic footwear, and layers, including a layer of insulated and waterproof clothing with a hat. You can also buy things along the journey, so if you don't have one now, you can get one later. What brings you more confidence? Is it knowing where you are going to sleep tonight? Is it knowing the language? Is it knowing you don't have to worry about anything? Let me know your thought...
