My Tour

Rating: S
I had the privilege of visiting the John G. Neihardt Center in Bancroft, NE on Monday. If you come up from the south on I-29 and cut over on whatever state highway it is, be wary of the bridge between Iowa and Nebraska. It is highly unpleasant driving and a toll bridge ($0.75) to boot!
I was the first visitor to the center that day--I arrived at 2pm--and the kind lady turned on the lights for me and set up the short video. She was very kind.
I watched the video, looked at the exhibit, briefly examined the research library (room) and toured the grounds which include a garden and Neihardt's old studio where he wrote.
If you have never heard of this author, pick up Black Elk Speaks. It's a good read, but my favorite is Indian Tales and Others.
His theology is slightly off (I'll say no more now), but his craftsmanship is phenominal.
