How did you do it? Was there a lot of money spent on this election? Were there tv ads?

Omaha and Lincoln are where we find a Costco whenever we travel through which is usually once a year. I really like Nebraska. So many of the little towns have parks with RV hookups for just a few bucks. We've stayed in some lovely places.

Congrats on this election!
