the great plains

we've been life long supporters of the midwest and its people. we love the midwest's great lakes region, from which we hail, as well as the great plains region that stretches out across our great land.

the land of nebraska, which we recently drove across, stands as a symbol of the qualities that make the midwest great. when one looks out on the nebraskan landscape, qualities like predictability, continuity, and simple beauty come to mind. these are the qualities of the midwest and the midwesterner.


"the good life", indeed.

Well played Staples, well played. Another good Nebraska quality: Long, straight roads. We're not show-y, we don't need no curves.
