Good evening! Meow!
Tomorrow is Tuesday and I am working on some plans! I will be visiting Chadron, Nebraska and Chadron State College tomorrow. There are a few museums that I plan to visit as well, but I will be doing that on Wednesday, the first day of the Nebraska Passport program!
We are expecting more snow on Wednesday though. I'm hoping for rain instead. I am ready for Summer! Meow!
On Wednesday, weather permitting, I will be visiting the Mari Sandoz High Plains Heritage Center, Museum of the Fur Trade, and perhaps a few other local spots in the area. :) But only after I pick up my Nebraska Passport! Won't that be fun? Of course, I'll share my adventures with everyone! =^-^= Look for more posts this week!

Nebraska Passport and One Special Kitty!
Hello! Meow!
I am not just any kitty, but I am a Nebraska kitty. I've lived most of my existence in the state of Nebraska, in the Western Panhandle area to be exact. I know a lot of people think Nebraska is boring. What do you think of when you think of Nebraska?
Farm land? Corn? The Cornhuskers? Larry the Cable Guy?
Or maybe if you're a bit more educated or local to the area, you think of...
The Louisiana Purchase? Cowboys? Rodeos? UNL? The Oregon Trail?
Well, if you don't know much about Nebraska, I really advise taking the Nebraska Passport challenge! I am! Mew! It'll take you all over the state to 80 attractions, all sectioned into eight themed tours. You pick up a passport book and you get it stamped at as many locations as possible! And what's there to lose? You get to see interesting attractions you never knew existed, get the chance to win really cool prizes, and you get very special memories in the process.
So, here's a list of some of the places:
-Fort Robinson State Park in Crawford
-Stuhr Museum of the Prairie Pioneer in Grand Island
-Lakota Hope Center and Lakota Art Institute in Whiteclay
-Back Alley Bakery in Hastings
-West Nebraska Arts Center in Scottsbluff
-Woodland Trails Art and Learning Center in Winnebago
-Agate Fossil Beds National Monument in Harrison
-Nebraska National Forest in Halsey
-The Rocket Inn in Indianola
-Lakehouse Bar and Grill in North Platte
-Boys Town at Boys Town
-General Crook House at Fort Omaha in Omaha
-Arrow Hotel and Suites in Broken Bow
-Whispering Pines Bed and Breakfast in Nebraska City
-Loop Brewing Company in McCook
-Thunderhead Brewing Company in Kearney
-Mari Sandoz High Plains Heritage Center in Chadron
-Wright Morris Walking/Driving Tour in Central City
-Nebraska State Capitol in Lincoln
-Strawbale Church in Arthur
-Glur's Tavern in Columbus
If that's not enough for you, there's the prizes you can win. Each completed tour gets a free t-shirt, 20 stamps gets you 20 $1 Nebraska scratch tickets, 40 stamps get you a digital camera, and everyone gets the chance to be entered to win a grand prize drawing. There is also an additional drawing for 300 $1 Nebraska scratch tickets.
So join me folks. :) It'll be fun!

Introduction
Hello! Meow! And welcome!
My name is Sprinkles, and I am a very special knitted kitty. Why? Because I am curious about the world around me, and I want to see it all! Or... as much as I can. =^-^=
This is my goal in life. I was born January 2013 in Fort Collins, Colorado and was sent out to Nebraska to live with my current owner. She's a college student who dreams of working in a museum or historical site someday. Neat, huh? Mew? Well, I'm going to travel with her on her travels and share some of it here with everyone!
So... to summarize that up, you can see where I go, who I hang with, what events I go to, and all of the other little tidbits of my journeys. Please read along and stick with me as I complete my journeys.
