What great Pj's Yodi!!!!!

Site-seeing with Yodi!
 

I was up early as always........on vacation, but still up at 5:15am. What is up with that? :eek: But, it did get me going sooner. Our day started with dropping the boys (Lucky & Toby) off at the groomers for summer haircuts, then back home for breakfast......pancakes anyone?

After breakfast, we (hubby, Emily, Yodi and Halle and myself) began our outing to "See the Sights :rolleyes: of Omaha"!!!! Are you ready?:p Are you excited? :D Get ready.......this is Omaha, Nebraska after all :)........a city right smack dab in the middle of.......well, I'll let you fill the last part in;). No......seriously, Omaha is my hometown..born and raised here & I turned out ok. :thumbup:
But, enough jibber-jabber.......here is our day!

First stop: Rosenblatt Stadium - Home of the College World Series
Read about Rosenblatt's history here: Rosenblatt Stadium - Omaha, Nebraska

Next stop, just a skip and a hop away from Rosenblatt, Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo. Visit the zoo website here: Home | Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo
Attachment 278078 Yodi & Emily outside the zoo entrance AND Yodi in front of a zoo attraction known as the Desert Dome. Attachment 278079

Stay tuned..........there's a little bit more;)

Yodi has been cruzin all over the place!!!!! What fun!!!!!!!! More ooooooh I cant wait!!!!

...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!:rolleyes:
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!

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!

Yodi is going to be one tired... stuffed dog! I like the picture of her on the ball in front of the stadium.. took me a minute to find her and gave me a little chuckle at how small she looks

How cute is that! Thank you!


Wow, you went to loads of places and I learnt about the place my favourite Counting Crows song is about! I love that "O" picture. I think that's the one I'm going to use for your google map pin!

I'm glad you all had fun taking Yodi round and your granddaughter is to cute too. :D


Where is Yodi off to next I wonder!!!! :confused:

So that's Omaha!!! :D I felt like I was visiting just as Yodi has....It's nice to finally get to see Nebraska Furniture Mart that you "lovingly" talk about so much..hehehe. Loved the pic of Yodi on the ball in front of the Rosenblatt Stadium. I'm sure Emily was a great tour guide too!!:thumbup:

Wonder where she's heading to next.....:aimeeyork

This is exciting! Yodi's wings are attached again! Wonder how long it would take her to travel around the world. :) We need S. Africans, S. Koreans, NZ, Aussies, Japanese, and Thai to participate too! I know I've seen members from every one of those locations on YT! :D ;)

We also need lots of East coast members to join in because otherwise Yodi will be spending a lot of time on the West coast! :cool:

Am I the only east coaster?? or as east coast as Yodi's gonna get???? Hopefully some more people will join in to host Yodi..

I'm signed up too.. but hopefully we have more than Maryland and Pennsylvania!

What cute pictures!! I love the pj shot!

What a great job of giving Yodi a tour of Omaha! Loved the pictures... Very interesting. :) My favorite is the Big O. Lol.
