	AEOLIAN OMAHA!! BRINGING IT HOME

		WELCOME TO MY HOME TOWN! 10.30.10 I FINALLY BROUGHT THE AEOLIAN RIDE TO THE GREAT PLAINS. MY COUSIN GOT MARRIED & MY NEBRASKAN FAMILY JOINED THE RIDE. OMAHA MAP photo by: Thomas Grady

		SUP CUZ The tall gentleman on the right is my cousin Adam. His enthusiasm & my Uncle Tom's suggestion to bring it home is what sparked the fire to bring the ride to Omaha. I did some kid costume test suits which Adam tried during a Fort Rob vacation. Suprisingly he fit into a tiny kids costume, which put a huge smile on his face then he disappeared down the road for a long time. photo by: April Faith-Slaker

		LITTLE WIND GOES A LONG WAY Sometimes you don't even have to move to get puffy. photo by: April Faith-Slaker

		NOAH & THE WIND This little guy is my second cousin testing out one of my first kid's costumes. He was really shy as you can see here at first. By the end of the ride he was so amped I would be talking to someone and look down and he was attached to my leg, following me around, sitting in my lap, eating my chips. He went to a Halloween party that night and boasted to all his friends that he know's Jessica Findley, as if I were as fantastically famous as Spider Man. Pretty darn cute. photo by: Thomas Grady

		FAMILY My dad is one of 8 kids, so I have lots of cousins. Many of them showed up to join the ride. Here Sarah & Jed get ready to puff up. photo by: Thomas Grady

		OLD MARKET Downtown has one cute little spot with old buildings and some yummy restaruants. This place has lots of memories for me, from art classes at bemis, buying records at the Antiquarium to blizzards on New Years. photo by: Jessica Findley
