Nebraska

We spent the night in Omaha with plans to have it be a great day at the Omaha Zoo.  The weather did not cooperate with big storms rolling in so we decided to head right to your friends in Colorado with a few stops along the way.

Not sure what this statue is but very cool in Council Bluffs, Iowa.  A must do picture stop.  

There is not much between Omaha and Denver along the expressway but there is the Bailey Yards Railroad, the world's largest rail yard so we stopped and totally enjoyed it.  It is very impressive to see it in person.  Peter remembers watching some Modern Marvels with it featured.  We can see why after visiting. 

It was way too sunny and the kids REFUSED to face the camera.

Finally I am in a picture.  I did trust Harper and EB with the camera for a bit. 

Kids wanted a funny picture!

EB!

Family shot!

This is where the fisheye goes terribly wrong.  They were all laughing so hard it was hard to be angry with them.




Their pennies from the store.  Big fun had by all. 



One last family shot!
