Nebraska Birthday Party


Today is the 145th birthday for the State of Nebraska.  this is an image of our State's flag which features the state seal. The seal’s design is as follows: On the eastern part, a steamboat is ascending the Missouri River. The mechanic arts are represented by a smith with hammer and anvil. Agriculture is represented by a settler’s cabin, sheaves of wheat and stalks of growing corn. In the background, a train is heading toward the Rocky Mountains, which are in view in the west. In the top of the circle is the state motto: “Equality Before the Law.” There was no Equality in Indianapolis this afternoon as the Nebraska girls beat the Northwestern team 88-56 in the first round of the Big 10 tournament. We led early 41-10 and never looked back.

We are fortunate in having our daughter and her husband living nearby. Our granddaughter, her husband, their daughter Sadie & son Jack also live in Seward. I have seen major league baseball games in all 30 current stadiums and have kept a daily diary or Journal for many, many years.
