Recently we took a short afternoon trip down Highway 2 to Nebraska City and did a little sight seeing as well as spent time at the ArborDayFarm. To explain the pictures of the "whispering bench"...the bench was made so that if you whisper something at one end into the wall of the bench it can be heard by the person sitting all the way on the other side! And I know it actually works because we tried it!
I know I've been to the Arbor Day Farm before but it's been several years and it was a totally new experience being there with Paul and Ryan. The trees were gorgeous! That was the main reason we went, to see the trees. Nebraska City is home to the man who started Arbor Day or tree planting day. So, as you might expect, there are a lot of trees there! We walked a 2 mile wooded trail and saw a huge owl as well as lots of beautiful colors on the trees. Then we picked some pumpkins, got two free trees, and bought some amazing apple and cherry wines....oh, and a sooper-dooper yummy apple turnover!
