Description
When driving across the country, from Iowa back to California, many years ago, we discovered "Carhenge" in Nebraska. What a strange and very interesting sight to see! L&F Footnote: Located just north of Alliance, Nebraska, Carhenge was created in 1987 by Jim Reinders, as a memorial to his father. Thank you Doug Kreuger of Fine Art America for the footnote.

State Flag
Nebraska's official flag was adopted in 1925. The flag has a deep blue field with the state seal in the center, pictured in gold (yellow) and silver. The state seal, designed in 1867 by Isaac Wiles (a member of the House of Representatives), pictures a blacksmith hammering on an anvil, a settler's cabin, sheaths of wheat, a steamboat on a river, and the transcontinental railroad, with mountains in the background. The state motto, "Equality Before the Law," is on a banner above the landscape. The date of Nebraska's admission to the union, March 1, 1867, is listed below the seal. The FAA watermark will not appear on finished products. *
