if you measure distance in sections (not squares) of farm land.
my grandfather actually became good friends with someone who dialed the wrong area code. they called up and talked once a month and eventually both families went on a cruse together. they were both in the war and had kids the same age.
As someone who lives on a half-quarter-section somewhat south of Grand Island, I can relate.
Just not as much snow where I am.
Nebraska sound too much like Great Bend, in Central Kansas!
That applies more to everything west of York more than anyplace, but the sentiment's right. I used to live in the west river country of South Dakota. Just a little closer to Siberia.
I spent the past four years at Elmo in Alaska, and some of the same apply.
