We navigated road construction in the rain. Some tourists showed up from Texas. They mistook us for locals. (We had never been to Cawker City.) We would have loved to have stayed to find out what they wanted, but we had people waiting on us in McPherson, Kansas. So on we went. We could have parallel parked but instead, we opted in the rental van to continue on our way.

We have always heard about people traveling to see the quirky things that are out there. So while…read morein Kansas we decided we wanted to visit the city of Cawker to see the Worlds Largest Ball of Twine. We signed the registry and we were amazed how many people from different countries and throughout the US had visited this iconic work of love. The ball is impressive but so is the story behind it. There is an old time gas station across the street. We highly recommend a visit, if not to see the ball of twine, then to learn its story.

This is an old time German club…read more i came downtown to check out the ethnic festival, but like most festivals yeah i gotta say it's like 6th Ave in NYC when they close down the street the heat from the asphalt is just annoying. Cold Lowenbraus from Germany, fresh brats, no need to get a silly wristband or deal with tickets, it' s cash. Inna bier-garten filled with trees. The whole place is set up like a german beer garden circa 1919, which is when Nebraska went dry one year before the Volstead Act. Big brick walls. I am reminded of a Philip Roth novel I read about a year ago, how on a Sunday he and his father would ride by the German Bund in Newark and hate them. (and yeah, the Nazi's were pretty bad). (in fact they held Nazi's across the street in WW2, as POW's, even let them drink 3.2 beer, which the Krauts hated, talk about homeland security) They would be outside in Newark on a Sunday afternoon drinking beer. Enjoying freedom. Which pisses off Philip Roth. Now as a German-American should I wonder about how great it is to be having a beer on a Sunday afternoon, or identify with a Jewish-American with obvious sexual-neuroses? I'm not voting for Roth, even though Goodbye Columbus was a good novel.

This facility is a true gem in Grand Island!…read more The Liederkranz is mostly known for the use of their main floor facilities in hosting weddings, banquets, concerts, and dances. I had my wedding ceremony in the courtyard and the reception in the ballroom. The staff and volunteers were excellent, it really was perfect! I work full time and they took care of almost every detail. The Liederkranz has been around longer than Grand Island has been a town, it was the first concern hall and serves to preserve not only German history but Grand Island and American history. The basement has a beautiful bar that they had to disguise it during prohibition. The enclosed courtyard is absolutely gorgeous spanning the remainder of the city block. They have a bowling alley that was built around the 1960s and a restaurant that serves food on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights with Germain cuisine once a month. They offer German language lessons and have a group of singers that practice regularly to sing songs from the old country. If you are planning an event or just want to get in touch with some old GI history I definitely recommend the Liederkranz!

However, this building exceeded any of the others in the scope and breadth of its materials and artwork. Well done, Cornhusker State!
