Last time I was in here this place was overrun with Creighton kids running about attempting to find…read moresilly outfits for some sort of frat party. Ick. But anyway this location has been a miss with me lately. No good clothes or records -- I've only managed to score a couple worthwhile nicknacks here and there. I've also noticed that there is always quite the variety of scuzzy furniture for sale -- too bad anything in reasonably good shape is overpriced and/or always has a sold tag attached to it. Still, it's a huge store that's worth checking out if you're in the area with an hour to kill. I did find a nice '80s 10-speed bike here a while back. Still, as rusty as it was, not a great deal for $35.

I have had the pleasure of volunteering with Habitat for Humanity in many different times in my…read morelife (high school, college, adulthood), and have seen first hand the good they do for the community. My most recent volunteer activity was with my company, so I had a group of folks I knew from my day-to-day life there with me, but you won't always have that. But that means you'll meet a few strangers to turn into new friends! There is a task for any level of expertise. If you're a newbie, you may just be holding a ladder for a bit. If you're a little green but have some experience you may be able to paint some things. If you're an expert and have experience in certain construction things, they may even have you helping to attach doors and put up drywall. These are just examples, but the point is that no matter your skill-set, don't let it keep you from volunteering. The main "construction" of cement pouring and foundation building is obviously done by actual professionals, so you can't do anything that will mess up the house too bad. I definitely recommend volunteering with Habitat for Humanity. While it may be hot (because most builds have been done during the summer in my experience), and some hard work, it can actually be a lot of fun!

We spent several hours building a home for a very fortunate family. Jordan was our team lead and he was very knowledgeable and communicated with everyone very professionally. If you are reading this, look up Habitat for Humanity and give a few hours to help a family with your sweat labor. Habitat for Humanity is a great organization and they are doing some very good things in Omaha, for the people of Omaha. They have several programs to help families become a home owner.

It's my understanding that at the moment they are closed due to the season as well. So check the website for more information about getting the whole experience. I went to the location because I was visiting from out of town and it's not likely I'll be back any time soon. I was able to see a structure which I'm assuming once was the home of Malcolm X. There is also a historical marker in front of the house. I also saw that they are in the process of expanding so I'm excited to see what the future holds for that.

He turned 10 and wanted to hold the bush baby Benji, it was truly the best day ever for him. He has the encounter with a great staff member, Gina, and also the otter LuLu. Over all the encounters were fantastic, but it is a little slow. It's a sprawling sanctuary for animals. There are dozens of different animals to pet, and look at. Not every cage was open anymore compared to previous visits, so that was sad. It's a hodge podge of sheds, trailers and kennels/fencing for the variety. Again it's not really for me, but I can see the appeal for little kids and the animal lovers.
