Martin Luther King Day

Kris and I went to Beatrice to visit Pam.  She took us to the Homestead National Monument which was really interesting.  It is actually on the site of the very first land that was acquired through the Homestead Act of 1862.  I'm looking forward to going again and hiking around the property and learning more.

 

There's a fence on the property with lots of different types of barbed wire.

Then we went driving around the countryside and found this American Kestrel and another little guy that I can't identify.  I'm not real good at naming birds yet.
