  • Hello from our 41st state: Nebraska! 🙌🏼 We have decided to visit three brand new states, all of which are very underrated, on our way back to Texas and we kicked it off with a 5 day road trip across Nebraska!
    Nebraska may be the Cornhusker State, but there is SO much more than corn! 🌽 We had a blast experiencing the natural beauty, fun cities, unique stops and activities, and delicious food that this state has to offer.

    If you come back to Nebraska in January and February on a Tuesday, you can get a Runza for the cost of whatever the temperature is outside. Meaning if it's 10 degrees it costs 10 cents, and if below zero, FREE RUNZAS! (with purchase of fries and drink). About the only thing to look forward to in Nebraska in the winter

    What a wonderful and fun video. I was born and raised in Nebraska and feel you both did an amazing job of showcasing our state in 5 days. There are many fantastic things that you weren’t able to cover but rank so high on list of things to see and do. Ashfall, in the northern portion of the state, is a most incredible area that paleontologists from around the world come to see. It is a Pompei type setting where ash from a huge volcanic eruption 10 million years ago left incredible 3-D remains of rhinoceros, camels, horses etc. Truly one of a kind site that should not be missed. There is also a section of the Old Lincoln Highway in Elkhorn, just outside Omaha, that is still the original brick used in the first highway that ran across the United States! North Platte is home to the North Platte Canteen station that 2 to 8 thousand WWll troops passed through DAILY and were served meals and support by a town of only 1200 people, EVERY day of the war, open 24/7, free of charge by volunteer residents. Incredible historical story. Zoo is in the top 5 in the entire nation.If you are a visitor to Nebraska try to include these things in your itinerary. You won’t be sorry.

      Since my paternal grandpa was the only boy with 7 sisters, the Army kept him state-side during WWII (that mattered back then), & Fort Robinson was where he was stationed; he trained dogs to go overseas & fight. He actually lived his entire 95 years in Nebraska. Summer of 1989, after I finished 4th grade, my family took a vacation out to western Nebraska & my dad identified the window of a building that was where Grandpa’s quarters were when he was stationed there.

    Anyone wanting to Tank definitely needs to go in the summer because there will be plenty of people all throughout the common rivers for tanking and any sandbar you stop at will be a meeting spot to hang out and chill.

    The thing about Runza is that, day to day, there's some variation because they're making the filling using fresh ingredients, and not just opening a can from a supplier. Sometimes the cabbage might be a bit more sulfury or the onions might be a bit more pungent than sweet, but to my taste, they're never less than good enough, and when they're at their best, they're a little piece of heaven.

    I’ve only ever been to Nebraska once and that was just for a weekend to photograph a wedding. You guys did such an amazing job of showcasing what all Nebraska has to offer! Every state has something unique and special about it…it’s wonderful that you two shine the light on some places that often get overlooked. I really enjoyed this vlog especially since you included a few snippets of your awesome parents! All the food and coffees looked so so delicious! My mouth is watering now! You’re amazing Adam, Katherine, and Kona! ❤😊

      It was awesome having Kathryn’s parents come visit us. We with it could happen more!
      Thank you so much, Brad!

    Well, you certainly opened my mind about Nebraska! This is a great message about the "flyover" states. I LOVED the tanking sequence! That looked so fun! And btw, you got a glimpse of the past with those bugs on your windshield. Back before pesticides decimated our insect populations, getting your windshield covered in dead bugs was a daily thing (unless one lived in a city perhaps). Things really began to change in the late 90s. I can't remember the last time I had to clean bugs off my windshield, including during my travels around different parts of the country.

    • @AdventuresofAplusK
      @AdventuresofAplusK  ปีที่แล้ว

      There is so much to see and do in NE!
      Oh wow! I’m sure it’s much more pleasant to live and drive without all the insects but I know it hurts animals and environment that need all those insects. Thanks and thanks for watching!

    I'm surprised you didn't get to go to the zoo. That's generally what people come to Nebraska for.
    When you are in Iowa there is a great place in council bluffs called tastee treat. Highly recommend it

    • @AdventuresofAplusK
      @AdventuresofAplusK  ปีที่แล้ว

      We know it’s a big deal there, but we’re not big zoo people so maybe another time. There’s lots more to see and do that interests us much more in Nebraska

    I just love the Sandhills, and pan handle of Nebraska. Visited many times as my dad grew up near the car henge site. Chimney rock is one end of a chain of raised rocks, making a horseshoe. Someone shot off the top about 18 years ago, it was taller when I was a kid. You can do a wagon train meal there, not daily.
