It's LINCOLN!!! I started by referring to Lincoln, and then switched to Omaha...and Omaha is a Native American tribe... [/quote] Yes, I know that... I forgot to make the Lincoln comment orginially...

JP2Iloveyou Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 I've lived in Lincoln and the Twin Cities both, so I think I am somewhat qualified to respond here. Lincoln is great. I absolutely loved my time there. The Church is wonderful there, it's an amazing college town, the football games are crazy, and it's easy to get around. Minneapolis/St. Paul is nice as well. There is much more to do in M/St. P than in Lincoln. My friends and I go to Twins games quite a bit, we caught a Wild game last year, and I went to a Vikes game with another friend of mine. It certainly is a much bigger place. I also like the fact that it is north. I'm a cold weather person. However, overall, I would have to give the (slight) edge to Lincoln. On the whole, I enjoyed my time there more than I have enjoyed my time in the TC area. I'm happy with both though because when I lived in Lincoln, it was exactly where the Lord wanted me. If I hadn't been there, I wouldn't be in the seminary today. Now that I live in the TC area, I love it also because it still is exactly where the Lord wants me. God Bless, JP2Iloveyou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thy Geekdom Come Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 By the way...yes...the Henry-Doorly zoo in Omaha is the world's third largest...and a great thing to visit while you're waiting for your College World Series game to start, since the stadium is right next to it...
