Day One - University of Nebraska

Seats 94,000
You can't go past a college stadium and not check it out - especially  a Big Ten stadium and a big time college football program.  Dad and I went up to the stadium and Dad asked if we could see the field.  A super nice guy said no not unlesss you go to east side and join a tour.  Dad said okay but we really don't have that much time as we have to cross the state today.  Next thing you know the guy is leading Dad and I to the field.  He gives us the VIP treatment and takes us down the passage the players enter the field, touch the lucky horseshoe and we are on the field.  He is grabs my camera and gets pics of us.  You ask where is Mom - we thought we were just running up so she stayed with the car in a no parking area! 

Statue of Tom Osborne



On the field!

This is where players exit.

Played for the Rams

Then I wanted to stop at York College, York, NE  - thinking of my friends Nate and Jon!

Prayer Chapel on Campus

Mom wanted to stop and see the chapel - beautiful inside!
