    Hours are funky but chances are, as long as the boss knows, he dont mind showing the joint…read more Admission is under $8. Less for kids and if with a church or school or a student. Big dirt parking lot. The museum is basically a bunch of rocks since the boss is a geologist. Besides sharing similar faith with boneyard's mission statement, i love places that provide differing opinions that are contrary to popular opinion and sought this spot out during my travels. Textbooks say earth is a gazillion years old.. Known as old earth theory. The creation pov states earth is like 20k years old. Sounds crazy huh? But it makes sense. Historical science puts earth at 15k with the warka head, the oldest known sumerian artifact. Geologist state rocks are billions years old based on a 150+ year old rock aging system using charts and pictuers. Hmmm. One thing ucla historians thought me is always begin my research endeavors with the underlying principle... "all textbooks are lies and government propaganda." Thus look at alternative theories and explanations, weigj the arguments for or against, derive a conclusion then prove your conclusion throughout this journey called life. Thus my travels confirms or debunks my studies :). Boneyard offers alternatives against theories scientists are quick to agree upon without much debate. This is frightening in two ways: 1. Popular opinion is not always right. Millions of examples. 2. What are their agenda? If everyone agrees earth is a billon years old then funding will continue and these geologists or other philosophical scientists continue to profit. If earth is 20k years old created by a Divine Creator then the discussion is over, geology as a science is mute and funding stops. Plus these scientists will look like retards for devoting their lives to junk. Hmmm.... Get it? Safe travelings my friends.

    I'll admit that the only thing about this museum that I experience was the basement, which to most…read morepeople is the most interesting part. What I'm talking about is the history of Kool Aid! Kool Aid is a brand we don't hear very much about anymore, unless we're talking about cults. But the town of Hastings does take pride that the founder of Kool Aid is from there. There is a huge detailed display about the evolution of Kool Aid, and its very cool to learn about. Remember the Kool Aid toys and collectibles we all grew up with, regardless of generation? They're all there. And you can also watch a montage of classic Kool Aid commercials while there. There's a statue of the Kool Aid Man outside the museum as well. I feel really bad that I didn't check out other parts of the museum (I think there are 3 floors...) as it talks about the natural history as well as the agriculture and cultural part of the town. But maybe for another time....

    OK, this museum is a lot of fun. There is a lot to do for families of all ages and groups of all…read moresizes. We got there and came in and we're looking at the animal exhibits when someone mentioned that a planetarium show was about to start about black holes, so we went inside and my cousin and I both adults and three young children under 10 took our seats and really enjoyed the approximately 20 minute presentation on black holes, looking up at the ceiling in the projection and it was a lot of fun. There are multiple types of exhibits in the museum, including a really cool area celebrating Kool-Aid. Because apparently Kool-Aid was invented in Hastings, Nebraska. Who knew?! There is a antique car exhibit in the basement area as well and a Lego section that is interactive, and the whole experience was really nice. The bathrooms near the Lego exhibit were clean. We used the elevator to go between floors because my cousin has lots of small children in a rolling stroller/cart, and there's a little gift shop with fun things to view and purchase and I would definitely recommend if you're in the Hastings area. You spend some time here..

    We were visiting North Platte on the way to Denver and checked Yelp, TA, and Atlas Obscura for…read morethings to do and see and this place had some great reviews and comments. Plenty of parking, and a little bit off the main drag, so it was not too crowded. The girl at the front desk was very helpful and took the AAA discount. When I went to purchase some gifts there was a YELP Discount offer which she had not seen that before, she ended up giving it to us, but I think she didn't know how to ring it up in her system. I should have brought my camera, but at least I got some pictures with my cell phone. Some great views of the trains nearby and the surrounding area. There is a lot of information about trains, history, WWII, and the area. A neat place to visit in North Platte for sure. There is a fee to get in but you get to see everything inside and you can take an elevator to go to 2 different observation levels, which have a lot more information and history, and offer 2 different vantage points. There is also a train car outside on the ground level, as wells as a small wooden train, and a bunch of state flags with some interesting facts on the base of each flag.

    Everyone at this tower was super friendly. All of the employees were nice and informative about…read moreeverything there. We only paid $10 for our ticket to go up the tower and it was a very pretty view. They told us that we could come back all day with the ticket so if we wanted to get food and come back and picnic there we could! The view from the tower was really nice and the tickets they gave us was like a train ticket so it's really cute. A very good stop!
