Re: Kum & Go ---->>> Maverik
The existing stores might get the Casey's treatment too where they'll remodel some sites and turn them into Cadillacs, and the others will just get new signage and otherwise be left to disintegrate. That is so true. There are some of them that only had the name change but the store operates just as...

Wow, another mid-rise residential conversion. That would be great, but as for the chances of a high or mid-rise new residential tower getting built that sucks.

Yeah thats what I am hoping for, And they also look cleaner/more organized than Kum and Go. The Kum and Go in Bellevue on Fairview, has has a broken piece on the canopy for at least a year and last time I went inside it was cluttered and dirty.

Re: Aksarben Village
They have gotten really lazy with the landscaping on the HDR block in AV. Rather than having grass on the parking bump outs near entrances, they just put white gravel down. Looks pretty cheap and tacky.

We stopped by on our way home from Colorado last summer. The guide stated that the trail just opened a few days prior, so that was nice that we were able to use it.
Actually, Sandra, in the video, is who we talked to. She was a nice lady and very well spoken.

Re: Creighton Baseball 2024
Saw there were around 4,000 last night. Wonder if the next game in Omaha on April 30th (if the teams keep playing well like they are) will draw near the 18,000 - 20,000 that this series used to draw when it was at Rosenblatt.

Re: 2024 Omaha Storm Chasers/Kansas City Royals
It’s only $5 but since when did they start charging to park in the gravel lot at Werner park? The other lots had a fee but that was the benefit to park on gravel was it being free. If they are going to charge the same amt, they should probably pave it.

Re: Creighton Basketball 2024-2025
Josiah Dotzler has entered the transfer portal. I knew it was possible, but I didn’t think he would. It’s just weird to lose a local guy.
Although just because they entered, the portal doesn’t 100% mean they are leaving, but usually that is the case

Re: Creighton Basketball 2024-2025
All that you mentioned would be a dream scenario. Unfortunately, Baylor can't come back, but having those other 3 would be great. I do expect a little more from Ashworth next year since he now knows the system and pace better. Trey is still the least likely to come back, but you never know.

Re: Creighton Basketball 2024-2025
Figured this one was coming too, but Jonathan Lawson is in the portal. He only scored 11 pts for the season, so not that big of a loss. Expected him to play more since he was a 4* recruit out of high school, but clearly coaching staff didn't see what they wanted from him.

yes, I am not sure that most realize how hard it is to get in that shape.

The leap from high school is already challenging but to pla...

I think Fred king might, Jonathan Lawson prob will. Other than that Baylor is done, Kalk will either go pro or come back, Trey will prob go pro. No one else really played so I don’t think it will matter much. I also think Dotzler will come back.
