Default ...a couple more little stops along the way.........

Well who would ever think that a trip to a furniture store would be a vacation spot???? Only in Nebraska!
Yep, our 3rd stop was at my workplace actually...Nebraska Furniture Mart, also known for being "America's Largest Home Furnishings Store". People do come from all over to shop here, so much so that they built another NFM store in Kansas City about 4-5 years ago and also have a small store in Des Moines, Iowa. The business was built by a little Jewish lady well known here as Mrs. "B". She died in 1998 at the age of 104!
Read about NFM's history here:Nebraska Furniture Mart ? History
Attachment 278080 Yodi & Emily outside NFM's main store. There are 3 buildings on the campus, Main Store; home furnishings & carpet, Mega Mart building; electronics and appliances, and a third building called Mrs B's Clearance Center.

Our last stop was just at one of the big "O's" found around town. The phrase is used in slogans in advertising Omaha.......if you're ever in the "Big O", be sure to stop by and visit us......just like Yodi did! Attachment 278081

And that ends our visit with Yodi! We LOVED having her here and are anxious to see and hear about all of her adventures to come. Where is she going next.............stay tuned to find out!
