Nebraska Stuck In Kearney

DJ's left nut · 06-10-2024, 07:59 AM

I'll be damned - my grandparents lived in Kearney for about 30 years. Went up there about 2-3 times/yr and spent a whole bunch of time out at Harmon Park (their house was literally across the street.

Nice enough little town for being out in the middle of nowhere. I saw some solid hockey at that little arena they have up there. You'll occasionally see some pretty good prospects come through the USHL so those are fun games.

Kinda sad knowing that I'll almost certainly never go there again - grandparents live in Kingman, Kansas now. And lemme tell ya, Kingman is quite a downgrade on Kearney.

That's quite a haul out there and back. If your insurance would tow it for you, I'd go ahead and have that done but if I had to pay for it it's probably gonna cost a small fortune (that's, what, 8 hours from Kearney to Springfield?). And I certainly wouldn't want to make that haul there and back twice in a few days.

If the mechanic can have it fixed in a day or two, I'd just stay in town. There are worse places to be.
