Prime Rib & "Nebraska"

We had a prime rib dinner this evening in conjunction with the Installation of Officers for Oliver Lodge #38, AF&AM here is Seward. Ben did a great job serving the meal and in leading the instillation. Several of the fellows involved are also members of a Lincoln, NE Lodge where they wear Tuxedos regularly so they decided to also wear them tonight. Pictures will be taken and put in the Seward Independent. While I wasn't involved with the pictures, I got home early. This was the last night that the movie, "Nebraska" was being shown at the Rivoli theater so we decided to go. We hadn't been to a movie for some time and this was our first time in the new little 2nd movie annex. The movie has been nominated for a number of Academy Awards and was most interesting. It probably doesn't display the image that most Nebraskans would like to project but there is a lot or realism in it. It's fairly easy for a Native Nebraskan my age to relate to and I did enjoy the scenery. I understand that much of it was filmed in Plainview, NE and it was in that town that I lost a cap on a windy day about like today, some years ago.
