When we are out of town and mention we are from Omaha, Nebraska, we get the puzzled look and the response of, 'Oh so you are farmers'. Those that know us know we are far from being farmers. Anyway, with Omaha hosting the College World Series and now hosting the Olympic Swim Trials, Omaha is getting some face time and gaining a name for ourselves.
We attended the first session of the swim trials yesterday and what a thrill that was to see all the swimmers not to mention the Olympic sized pool at the Qwest center. Built just for this occassion, it holds 2,000,000 gallons of water, that's right, 2 million gallons of water! Pretty impressive huh?
Another pretty impressive thing, seeing Michael Phelps in person! Woohoo!
