We just lost power

Why would anyone leave the Great Life during an ice storm?

Pre-employment physical...mandated or else I'd be @ home still

Hopefully your ash tree doesn't have the borer yet, or has been treated. And those red maple cultivars are usually some sort of cross between red (mostly strong) and freeman (not strong) maples.

Yes,I had it treated for Borer's last spring and will continue to do so every year.

Main streets aren't bad now, but residential streets are still ice rinks, for the most part.

Update? I see that UNL has canceled classes - I remember making the trek from Sandoz to Herms Liquor the few times that happened when I lived on campus.

Let dog out and she slipped off the steps so knew it was slippery. She's ok as she ran around the yard with no after effects.

I had no trouble driving around Uptown today.
Slippery last night, just wet today.

Tomorrow morning might be different.

Where was that located? I could not find a definitive answer online. I stayed in Cather Hall and we always went to N Street.

What year?

N street is now on O street

I was wondering where this Herm's Liquor was located.

What year?

1985/86

I vaguely remember it was a straight walk from the back of Sandoz to Herms. But things have changed since I lived there ca. late 70's.

Looks like it may have been between S and U, between 15th and 16th.

Yeah, I saw that Facebook map. That would be the Selleck Quad building today.

I was doing a little street view driving with Google Maps and it looks like there have been a lot more changes since I was there too. That's to be expected, but still. I made the trek back to Lincoln in 2015 . If it wasn't so bone chilling cold I would have walked the campus noticing the changes.

17th & P.....NW corner.

17th & P.....NW corner.

Herm's is still there. It's now a bar.
Back in my UNL days ('74-'81), we'd get huge snows. Everything would be closed except Herm's, which was jammed with students buying booze. You'd get half-lit then ride down 17th Street holding on to the back bumper of somebody's Jeep. Great times.

That would be "The Bar".
