Top Ten and a Half Things Learned on the Trip to Nebraska (for nine days)

1. Tressin can scream for about an hour strait (starting in Fort Morgan, mind you).

2. When cows are sleeping with their legs pointing up in the air, they are not sleeping. The deadwagon just hasn't been by yet.

3. Sage brush can look just like a deer to a city girl.

4. Taco pizza from Godfathers is quite possibly the world's most perfect food.



5. Catching your 4 year old daughter kissing your best friend's 4 year old son is a little freaky and very funny.

6. Cute little old ladies playing bingo take it very seriously.

7. My idea of a small piece of pie and Grandma's idea of a small peice of pie are quite different. "It'll do."

8. Canasta takes forever to play. But I already knew that. I did learn that Aunt Rita can sleep between turns.

9. Nebraska football games are like nothing else in this world but losing your diamond earring can ruin even the best day.

10. Starman has a freaking huge family- but again, I knew that already.
