Twilight in Lincoln, Nebraska

I visited Lincoln on a four-day road trip about 10 years ago. Home to ex-college football powerhouse University of Nebraska, it is your typical college town, with lots of places to hang out - bars, coffee houses, diners, and book stores. A foreign tourist may mistake Lincoln for a city called "Huskers", as cornhuskers signs and memorabilia abound.
