    There might be some good live music to catch... I can get you the schedules, if you are interested in that.

    Also, a few of us will be taking a little half-day trip, either Saturday or Sunday to pick up my new 'A' Roadster project :). You are welcome to tag along on that trip.

    We are due for a good hot rod gathering/shop night around here, so maybe next weekend would be a good time to do that.

    Are you going to have much spare time? Just looking for night-life related things to do?

    There's plenty around here to do, just let us know what you're interested in.

    You could come to Podunk and join in the early morning coffee clatch of the local old timers:( (Coffee here is still only .20 a cup)

    Maybe you could show him around the Smith Collection of American Speed? Granted it's at Lincoln and not Omaha, but not that far.

    Flying in? Driving? Coming up the Missouri River by boat? What time will you be in, and how long will you be able to stay? Do you know where you'll be staying yet? Solo, or with a significant other with? Or how can we get ahold of you when you do get to town, to give you some of our famous hospitality?

    PM me or Malcolm

    Does Aaron have a cell phone? Is he planning on visiting family or?... In other words, is your weekend completely open, or what approximate time frame/schedule do you have?

    I'll PM you my number and we'll try to figure something out.

    If you're into old shit, just north of omaha is the desoto bend wildlife refuge. They have a paddlewheeler that sunk in 1865 fully loaded. River changed course eventually, so they were able to recover most of the contents a hundred years later, well preserved cause of the mud. They have a neat museum about it that overlooks the boat's remains in the old riverbed.

    Not very hot roddy, but fascinating if you like old schtuff

    Sellers -

    Don't know how long you'll be around the area - or what your schedule might be - but the Speedway Motors Museum is only about 50 miles away in Lincoln. Weekday tours daily at 2:pM.

    Ten bucks to get in, but WELL worth it. A world class deal for sure.
