Runza, Nebraska


Southwest Runza sandwich


the Original Runza sandwich.



So we always try to visit the local hangouts when visiting different states. ..We were told we had to try the restaurant "Runza". What did you say? It took us a bit before we could understand what they were saying. They are located in Nebraska, Iowa, Colorado & Kansas. Now if you are from Michigan and have had a pasties... to me this what I can best say it is very similar too. Or maybe a pot pie sandwich??! Turnover with meat instead of dessert? Have you ever stopped at a Runza? There drive-thru was packed. It was a go-in kind of day, but guess what - the place was packed inside. I am guessing that Nebraska-ians love their Runza!!! no?!

Kind of sounds like a local thing, maybe most folks wouldn't be so sure of it, Beth. I'm not much on sandwiches anyway, but this one doesn't look all that great.

"Bar U Ranch" , National Historic Site. Established in 1882, it was huge ranching operation  "even more info here." .  if you know anything about me, you will know I have always wanted to live on a farm, own a farm, have horses, cows, dogs, cats, garden, fields, quiet & peace the whole 9 or is it 10 yards. I want a mountain view like in the movie "Legend of the Fall" .  so when we got the chance to visit this location I really enjoyed seeing how the ranchers came in a took over the whole ranching/cattle business. it was hard work, long hours but if you had the right team you would do just fine. the shot over the campfire is a pot of coffee & hot water. the lady, let me see, i think her name was Greta, that could so be wrong but it is what is popping in my head this moment. she was great at telling the story. these men would all do different jobs. the chef would run with all his team ahead of the folks to set up and get ...

( : Where do we even start?, I continued to say to my hubby throughout our trip to Washington, Oregon, northern CA back in August 2015, that I wondered how I could take a picture of the whole tall tree? The trees in in the eastern US are huge, but the trees out west are gigantic, massive, huge!! There are .... THEY ARE! ...how do I even begin to show a picture of these awesome trees? I don't own a fancy camera just a normal point and shoot. How do I express to you the magnitude of how tall these massive trees are? they are huge!!! & will you...
