And trusses started going up yesterday. When I saw this post back in February, I just assumed all the walls are up, but its still mostly wide open. Today I noticed about 20% of the roof was on and inside you could see them installing all the coolant lines for the refrigerators and freezers. Didn't ...

In that video, there is scaffolding on the east side by those first pieces of steel.

Mavs Win!!!

Great Comeback win! Omaha 73, North Dakota 72!

Grand Opening is Tuesday, March 12th, 2024 at 11am.

So glad Daylight's savings time is here! Always one of the best days of the year when we have several hours of light after work!

My wife was listening to some morning show the other day on the radio and the lady on the show clamed that Culvers had one of the best pork tenderloin, second only to Barrett's... So I had to try it. Whoever this lady was, she is WRONG. Not even close to in the same league as Barrett's.

Sweep!
Wow! This gonna get us into the tourney?

I would hope. They were knocking on the door before this weekend, I would hope they can move up a spot or two and get in.

Two more sellouts this weekend!

UNO-UNO-UNO-UNO!

Sweep!

Beer with Brad Episode 37 - Photography Discussion The 37th episode in my monthly photography series "Beer with Brad". Today I have a "OJ's Bronco" from Pint 9 Brewing in LaVista, NE. I start out talking about Circular Polarizers and White Balance. Then I get in to other art I li...

Former Omaha Maverick Jake Guentzel was traded to the Carolina Hurricanes. Carolina is gearing up for a run at a second Stanley Cup.

Its been happening long before we were here.

Over 17" of snow reported out in the North Platte, NE area which has prompted parts of I-80 to be closed out in that area. They also set a one day record yesterday: At NWS North Platte, we observed 15.3" of snow for the calendar day March 7th. Not only was this a daily record but this is ...

Oh boy... Thanks for the heads up.

I really like the good effects burning does to the wild lands, but the smoke is annoying...

That info from Creighton doesn't specify an extension date, but I have heard 5 years, since Mac will be 65 then and set to retire possibly. He is going to be one of the highest paid coaches in the Big East and Top 20 in the country. I noticed it didn't have an extension. I just assumed they were ke...

Not their reuben but have had their pizza a number of times and enjoyed it.

Same, we got there quite often, but never had the Reuben.

Both the HRRR and the NAM were showing 0.1" when I looked over the lunch hour...

Soft opening for the Blackstone location this weekend.

Crane Count Week 4 - 3/5/2024 344,000 This week we estimate there are 344,000 ± 55,000 Sandhill Cranes between Chapman and Overton NE along the Platte River. The Whooping Cranes have also returned for the season as we saw 4 Whoopers on the survey. For the first time this year our weekly count is no...

skinzfan23 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2024 8:41 am My question, do the shuttles to the south economy lot run a regular basis? How long do you usually have to wait for them?

I have never had to wait more than 5 min for the shuttle to the Budget lot. They usually have at least 2 running.

Snagged a photo earlier today:

How many people actually use the garage? We always park at Budget down on Locust.

“Building another 40,000 net square feet of meeting space and the only place to do that is to go out over the loading dock areas,” Dixon said.

Well that’s cool!

I'm excited for the next photo update 😊 Its a hard to get a good photo. The holiday Inn blocks the view from the south, which I prefer in the winter months. The easiest spot is from the office building to the north, but for another month or so, you are mostly looking in to the sun. It will be a nic...

Where to begin with both of these posts.... Why would an NHL league be created for Gretna :lol: League? LOL Omaha needs to work on building up downtown, not to create more suburban hellscape sprawl. Omaha is has no control over what Gretna does. Gretna is its own city in a completely different count...

Here you go. Put the NHL team at Oakview... LOL

Omaha still has a chance at Home Ice in the playoffs. Going in to this final weekend, they can finish anywhere between 4th and 6th. The Baxter better be rocking this weekend.

Tim Krueger was on 1620 this morning. Apparently a group of Bracketologists got together in Omaha over the weekend.

In Omaha, they have:
Kansas VS South Dakota State
Nebraska VS Gonzaga

Still had Creighton at a 3 seed and I can't remember where they were going or if they ever said?

Nice stat right here...

Anyone know they were adding another bar on the Arena Level? I believe this is on the south end of the arena under the seats. A little used storage area. We’re elevating our arena experience by adding a new courtside lounge to serve drinks to our guests on the floor! Anticipated completion is in 20...

What is Talus?
It’s a restaurant. There’s one in LaVista.

It’s in Papillion, in the granite falls development on 370.

Yeah it’s gotta be the lot B area.

Could it be in Lot D, attached to the convention center and rumored future parking garage? Could also have a skywalk to the ballpark too?

I noticed a few tents popping up just west of 84th Street on the hill that goes up to the UP Railroad tracks. Between the railroad and I-80.

Here is a photo of Aksarben Village from the summer of 2007, over 2 years after Aksarben Village was announced. Two years in and there were still no roads. Looking at this photo, I would assume it was 3 years for Aksarben to get to the point of where the Crossroads is now with all the roads and util...
