Re: Burger Detour (3 Omaha Metro Locations)
I went to Burger Detour on Friday. It was a good fast food burger. I don't like salt and was pleasantly surprised it wasn't a salt bomb. I could see how others might think its "bland", but for those of us that don't like salt, it did have good flavor.

I didn't get a picture as I was driving by, but there were some old railroad ties and rusty rails piled up on the NE corner of Saddle Creek and Leavenworth by the QT which I assume is from the old streetcar tracks they paved over decades ago. Could be that, or the Missouri Pacific Railroad also had...

The rain didn’t amount to a whole bunch. But should help settle the dust a little and hopefully help the grass some. The next week looks dry but some possible precip showing up maybe next weekend. Denver just got hammered with a big snow. My neighborhood got 0.4" and it sure greened up the lawn!

Re: Mutual of Omaha Tower (14th & Farnam)
looking at the scaffolding in the latest video, if the garage does wrap all the way around the front (East Side), its not doing it for at least another level or two. Its hard to judge from this angle, but the scaffolding appears to be 15-20 feet taller than the current garage floor they are building.
