The greatest part of our happiness or misery depends on our dispositions and not on our circumstances.

Western Nebraska 2012

The girls and I had our annual trip to Western Nebraska again. As usual, a great time was had by all. This year Susie's son Wyatt went with us. He was able to rekindle his friendship with Angie's son Slim.

We were entertained by Wyatt all most all the way to Cody Nebraska. Both of the boys proved to be very knowledgeable with the things they were passionate about. Even with a late start, we found ourselves able to stop for a nice Mexican lunch and shop in a great western wear store we found last year.

And yes, we were able to have our annual beer at George's Corner Bar, the part time strip club from last year. Turns out the waitress remembered us, of course what is not to remember! We ended up with several people, the waitress included, at our table and enjoyed hearing all the stories they had to tell. We met 2 firefighters from Omaha who were there helping with fires that were eating up the country side. We did not see any fires but saw smoke off in the distance.  Oh, and we met George. He is an older man who continues to work just for the love of it.

Once we finally made it to the ranch, we sat at Angie's table and talked until 2:00 in the morning. It was great to spend time with old friends and reconnect.
