LOBBS Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 My uncle lives in North O and has offered to put us up for a weekend and we'll take the kiddos to the Henry Doorly Zoo. I know there used to be a model contest up there because I entered it a couple times when I was a kid. Just thought we could kill two birds with one stone, take in a model show and a trip to the zoo. TIA
RodBurNeR Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 yep, what he said. i live in Omaha. here is a link to the "planned" trips for me so far this year.... some are Omaha and surrounding. the fliers for the shows he mentioned also. http://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc...-things/1/2007/
LOBBS Posted June 4, 2007 Author Posted June 4, 2007 Thanks all, I'm in KC now but I used to live in Dow City, IA (hour or so NE of Omaha) and then Oakland, IA (20 min or so east).
RodBurNeR Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 well if anyone is coming this way or pops into Omaha..... shout at me! awbcrazy@yahoo.com
Dag Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 I'm in Shenandoah IA, about an hour or so SE of Omaha. 8) I was born there! Nice little town
RodBurNeR Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 Omaha is over 800,000 pop. some will say i am lying, but see yourself lol http://www.accessomaha.com/ all you Iowans should come to Omaha for the October show!
RodBurNeR Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 I believe it Bob, but Shenandoah is like 7,000 people, from 70,000 to 7,000 IS a culture shock!!! I plan on mkaing that show as well. 8) oh i know what ya mean. i lived in the town my wife was born in for 10 years........ 3,000 people and when i moved back to omaha it almost doubled lol look for me at the show........
LOBBS Posted June 8, 2007 Author Posted June 8, 2007 I'm in Shenandoah IA, about an hour or so SE of Omaha. 8) I have an uncle that used to live in Shenandoah, they put on a great rodeo if I remember correctly.

I plan on mkaing that show as well. 8) My culture shock went the other way Dow City, IA---12 years, maybe 350 people (when we lived there) Oakland, IA---2 years, around 1600 people (when we lived there) KC Metro---14 years, more than 1 million When we moved to Blue Springs there were more kids in my new high school than people in the entire town we had just come from.
