Last weekend we made a quick trip to Omaha with our friends Dave and Kate Stone. Kate is from Omaha and we split our weekend between staying with The Tyler Danforth and staying at Kate's parents house on a lake. We had a great weekend, with great (old and new) friends.
We spent Friday exploring western Iowa wine country, and to our pleasant surprise, found some great reds that needed to make their way back to Denver. We spent some time chatting with the vinter/owner of Prairie Hawk Winery, learning more about himself and his wines.
Friday night we hung out with Tyler, Dave and Kate, Kate's sister Kalen and her boyfriend Bill. We did dinner downtown Omaha and explored Old Market. Omaha has so much to offer, it's a neat town with lots to see and do. The highlight of the night were the slides in a park downtown. Chris and Tyler had a friendly race, and according to Chris (contrary to what the video shows), he was the winner.
We were excited to be back in the midwest, the home of Quik Trip, and we made several visits during the short time we were in Omaha!
This is a view of the lake at sunset. We enjoyed a football-filled Saturday and lake-filled Sunday with Kate's family. They were so kind to host us and we enjoyed spending time with the fam. Overall we had a great weekend and we hope to visit Omaha again sometime soon!
