Weekly Fun Fact

Halloween takes place in the fall and comes from ancient Celtic tradition. They believed that ghosts roamed on Halloween and people would wear disguises in order to hide from these spirits.

Let's Reunite this photo with it's owner!

Recently I was in Nebraska City when I ran into an old friend. As we were visiting, another lady overheard that I used to live in Plattsmouth and showed me this photo. She said she lives in or near Percival, Iowa and after the recent flooding this photo was found on her property. Because of the background showing Steube's Jack and Jill, we determined it was taken in front of the former Community Center across the street. It looks like it could have been a milestone birthday celebration or retirement party. The date on the photo is June 24, 2006. If you, or someone you know, lost some belongings due to the floods, and would like this original picture back, contact Pat, at 402-235-2926, or Editor@MurrayNebraska.com.
