I'm presently in KC, but my mother's family came largely from Nebraska. One great great grandfather founded Diller in 1880. Another ran THE mercantile store in Columbus, and my gramps traveled all around the state opening stores in the 20s and 30s. Mom and uncle graduated from Technical High School in Omaha before Chicago Art Institute and the Navy Academy.
In my travels around your state, I've met other smart owners in Central City, Beatrice, Lincoln, Kearney, Osceola and several in Omaha. Obviously, you need a group to at least exchange recipes!
Cheers, Bob in KCMO
