: Hello Fellow Nebraskan!!!!! =oD Actually, I have never been cow tipping, and I don't know anyone who has ever done it either. I'm from Omaha, whis is nearing a population of like half a million...so I know nothing about cows 'n corn. But, isnt it nice how only a 20 minute drive can lead you out into the middle of some secluded woodland or a long stretch of prarie highway? Thats what I love about our state...it's not over-populated, it's not Complete farmland, and it's in a temperate zone so we can see the seasons change. Like right now, that indescribable smell in the air (no, not cow manure). You know what I'm talking about, Jeff? It just smells like...a Nebraska winter. mmmmmmm

I live in Omaha, too (Millard area, close to Lake Zorinsky). And yes, with the long warm Fall, I'm ready for some winter.
Nebraska is nice, but not the kind of place you'd travel half-way around the world to see.
I had cousins that lived on a farm. I went there often, but never cow tipped. I think it's more of a myth than a reality.
My wife and I go to Fontenelle Forest every so often. But we haven't gone to any of the larger areas. In a year our so our smallest kid will be able to handle longer walks. Then we'll get back to more of that kind of thing.
