That is the name of my neighbor's dog. But we don't live in Nebraska.
 
I lived outside Omaha some years ago..

I think I'll always remember the daily Farm Report,
with the price of;
Soybeans, Milo, Pork Bellies, Wheat, etc. etc......

As an Eastern city boy, I can remember thinking,
"What in hell is "MILO" ??

We lived several miles from a feed lot ( also new to me )
and when the wind blew just right....

I was born in Garden City, Michigan. My mother's parents were born in
Romania and my father's parents were born in Lithuania. Lithuanian was
Dad's first language, but he couldn't read the article I sent him in
that language. Oh, well, he's 84 now so shouldn't have to work at
reading. I hope that he is enjoying the thrillers I sent him. Lee
Child, you know.

I have lived in Denver, Colorado for over 20 years. We are expecting
our next snowstorm within days. It's been a dry winter so far.

Wow! We're only 3 hours away from each other! We might be able to set up
our own get together like they do in So Cal!

And you are right about the weather. We definitely need more moisture
around here.

Maybe an I-25 Alive (Thrive, dive, survive, connive)-In? A Rocky Mountain Munch In? Way
Out West Nosh? Shoot couldn't think of anything clever. Need to drink more cough
syrup... We are planning on getting a raindrop. They got one in the next county over,
too.

****. I didn't read this response before I emailed a reply to Karen. But!
What the hoot. I'm actually north of Denver in little Sidney Nebraska. I'd
be coming in from I-76, btw. But if there are enough of us in the general
vicinity, I'm game for a get-together!

More would always be nice, but let's face it - it's a heck of a lot better
this year than it was just two years ago.
