MLPFC Shit Posting

Just posting this here.

Western Nebraska gets a bad wrap. Drove back from Jackson Hole yesterday and the drive from Scottsbluff to Ogallala is beautiful.

Now, the drive between Kearney and Lincoln is some bullshit, but that’s besides the point. Will be going back to visit Lake Mac at some point.

Should have said something I was in North Platte all day yesterday.

Would have bought you a Coffee and a nice #308 hat.
 
For you Omaha boys, I spent a couple of hours yesterday with an RSS friend (Huskermutant) at 180th & Q / The Bearded Brewer.

Noisy as shit in there but overall a pretty decent spot. I’m the boring old CL/BL guy but can usually find something I like on the craft beer menu.

Anybody else been there??

I have not, but a place would have to offer Gate 25 level service to get me all the way out there for a meal.
 
Btw……who have you heard giving western Nebraska a bad rap?? The rest of the state should be so lucky as to have our climate.

Just the small-town farm boy in me but wouldn’t trade it for Lincoln or Omaha for anything. Moved out to SB in 1978 and have never looked back.

.
Maybe I80 from Ogallala west is the issue.(don’t know never been), but there’s usually a “pick your poison; Kansas, or Nebraska” mentality by those heading west that live east.

Hwy 26 is okay.

The real beauty of the state is along the pine ridge on hwy 20, followed closely by hwy 2 through the Sandhills
 
Yes. I80 finds itself in the least attractive parts of every state it passes through.

the Oregon trail, the Mormon trail, the Union Pacific transcontinental railroad and I80 (the United State’s main east/west Interstate route) all run through literally the only flat part of Nebraska (the Platte Val

this has led to a “Nebraska is flat” myth that will simply never go away
(Dark green is flat)

Ha ha you sound just like my high school buddies who lived in Benson when I was in Keystone.

Them: We're not driving all the way out there.

Me: Dudes, it's like 3 miles.

Them: Yeah, but the world literal lee ends at 90th and Fort.

Find a river and I’ll show you a railroad, find a railroad and I’ll show you a road. Corridors are expensive and hard to assemble, so they all piggy back on each other.

Western Nebraska is a hidden treasure hiding in plain sight. I reintroduced myself to about 800 miles of country roads in July and I enjoyed every minute of it.

FWIW, the pioneers on the Oregon, Mormon and California trails loved it too, Platte River was pretty easy to ford, the grass was plentiful for the oxen and it was flat so less stress on the wagons. So much history to absorb all the way from Fairbury to Scottsbluff.
