I never knew Nebraska was so fun and beautiful! April 19, 2008 Growing up in Nebraska all I ever wanted to do was leave and see any other part of the world that wasn't so BORING! After 18 yrs away from Nebraska I returned and found this book. I was surprised that it was written by a woman who was a good friend through my high school years. When young I went to visit relatives in many of the small towns the author writes about. Now as an adult I am returning and finding a whole new experience. Nebraska is beautiful and is truly "The Good Life". She is guiding me on week-end trips to areas of this state that I would have never thought there was any worth to visit.Was I wrong! I've bought several of her books and will continue to have my week- end discoveries. It is a shame that she is no longer with us to share more of her experiences.
From an Omaha Persepective... March 3, 2006 0 out of 4 found this review helpful
Book lists Ted & Wally's as an attraction in Lincoln - the original T&W is here in Omaha, Old Market. For a unique ice cream experience in Lincoln, try visiting the UN-L Dairy Store. The ice cream is delicious, there is a "Food Science" display, and native gardens right outside. There is a small quilt museum nearby at the Home Ec College. P.S. UN-L is my Alma Mater.
Champions Fun Center is in Lincoln - she lists Champions Fun Center as an attraction in some small town in south-central Nebraska - I wouldn't bother going there.
I needed an extra map to locate many of the smaller towns mentioned. You might want to order this book with a map of Nebraska to avoid frustration.

The descriptions of the locales and people are fascinating and are easy to read. If you are headed for Nebraska, or live in Nebraska, take this book with you on your next trip. You'll learn a lot!
