What's In This Blog

I created this blog for my journal. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In this blog I keep many of the things I come across as a member of the church. I also share my experiences on the ACE Train and getting to work, my experiences in Manteca where we have lived for three years, and other things I think are noticeable.

Views Downtown Omaha at Dodge and Sixteenth, FNBO Tower

 At the concert at the FNBO Tower is took good note of the area.  There was a nice plaza outside the FNBO Building and the tower provided shade for most of it.  Sites included the Spirit of America statues, geese and buffalo, fountains, a mural and the tower itself.  The FNBO building has an atrium with more geese statues inside.  I couldn't get in not being an employee but took pictures through the glass.

Joey G. Trio at the FNBO: Music in the Park: Tunes at the Tower

 Joey G. Trio has a unique sound with bass, drum and keyboard.  It is fun to just listen to the bass do his thing.  Sometimes he slides the note up the strings.

Rabbit Garden with Fountain and Murals Mainstreet Council Bluffs, Iowa

 There is a unique display in the middle of Main Street and Pearl Street in Council Bluffs.  There is a flower garden with strange rabbit statues mixed in.  There is also a fountain as part of the display.  

 



Scross the street there are a couple murals in the same area.
