Nebraska

We spent this past weekend in Nebraska where we met up with some of Calvin's family. We had fun and couldn't have asked for more beautiful weather. We took in a couple of museums, had a cookout and s'mores, played cards and just enjoyed the time. 

Of course, we saw lots and lots of farms as we drove. But the most interesting ones were the wind farms. There were so many of these as we got nearer to the state line on our way back. It was really quite beautiful to see these huge things spinning so smoothly--they looked like gymnasts. Eva G insisted on calling them weather vanes, even though we kept telling her they were wind turbines. She really liked seeing them off in the distance and then got so excited when we got close to them.

There's more to Nebraska than corn...they've got Carhenge too!! It was actually kinda neat, despite the cheesiness of it.
