Glad you enjoyed the walk! Westgate is a great neighborhood. The camera I use is the DJI Osmo Pocket 3. It is a handheld camera, but it is basically a gimbaled drone camera on a handle, which gives you smooth results. You can find links to the equipment I used in the description of this video! Thanks for watching!! 🙂

@@WalkNebraska thnx!

@@GardnerBroadbent-jo5hb Your welcome!

Thank you for watching!! 🎃

Vala's is a lot of fun! We have been season pass holders for about 10 years now, and I'll have some more videos from there this season!. Thanks again for watching, and thank you for the kind comment!! 🎃

My wife and I run Robin Hill Pool. I am the president of the board and she is the licensed pool operator there.

Thanks for watching!

Thank you so much for watching!! So many great spots in and around the Blackstone/Midtown Crossing/UNMC area. Next time, I need to walk through some of the surrounding neighborhoods, there are some beautiful homes. Thanks again!!

Thank you so much for watching! Great to hear feedback from a fellow Omaha resident!! 👍

Thanks for watching, Zack! I appreciate it! There are so many great neighborhoods and attractions in Omaha (as you are well aware!), and in our state. So my goal is to capture as many of them as possible over the coming weeks, months and years! Stay tuned -- I hope to get out and record more this week.

It's pretty neat. I haven't filmed all the new developments down there, so stay tuned! Thanks so much for watching!! ☺

Thanks for watching.

Indeed.

Wow!

A rough storm for the city...

Cool! It is an awesome part of our city. Thank you so much for watching!! 👍

Thanks 🤗

Thank you so much!! You keep up the good work on your channel as well!! 👍

Thank you for watching!! And I agree, the improvements they have been making to Downtown Omaha and the RiverFront the past few years (and the past 30 years) has been terrific. Thank yo for the feedback!! 👍

Thanks for watching! 👍

Always fun to walk with someone else! Thanks for watching! 🙂

It definitely changed when they redesigned the zoo and worked to create more natural "habitats" for the animals. The aesthetic is definitely prettier than before, but the overall vibe is different than when I was a kid in the 70s and 80s. I have heard the new orangutan facility is nice, but haven't been to see it yet.

Thank you for watching!!

I recall going and watching a football game there in high school (my family lived in the Westside school district growing up). I had to look up just now and see when Central finally finished its own stadium (completed in 2005). It's a great area (we live near 48th and Grover). I need to get to Morton Meadows (north of this walk) because I know people will probably love the architecture there. Thank you once again for watching and providing your insights! 👍

Thanks for watching.

It is a beautiful neighborhood!! Thanks again for watching!!

Thanks for watching!

Thank you so much!! 👍

Thank you for watching. Appreciate the kind feedback!!

I have always considered the area north of Grover, east of 60th, and west of 42nd to be part of Midtown Omaha. But people certainly have varying opinions on that (I considering South Omaha to be east of 42nd). Thanks for watching!!

It gets hot and humid in the summer here. This week we are in the mid-90s. Next week we hit the 100s. 🥵

Thanks for watching! 👍

Except cleaner, less crime, better people, cheaper to live, better quality of life.

@@casmatori Nebraska is DEFINITELY a great place to live!! 🤓

Thanks, Brad! It appeared they were breaking up the car show, but I'm not 100% sure. ABLE-1 was also flying overhead...

@@WalkNebraska You can hear those cars from your house. There is one in particular that every time they let off the gas, it back fires. One night a bunch of us were at the neighbor's house and that car reved its engine for nearly 20 min. "Rev, Boom! Rev, Boom! Rev, Boom! Rev, Boom! Rev, Boom! Rev, Boom! Rev, Boom! Rev, Boom! Rev, Boom! Rev, Boom!" for 20 straight min before they raced down center, and then down 90th...

@@bradwilliamsphoto At the 25:44 mark you can hear the first "boom", then more starting around 26:20. I did wonder what was going on at that point and where that particular car was. It's interesting to hear that this wasn't an isolated occurrence! 🤕

Thank you very much for watching!!

Thank you so much for watching -- appreciate your feedback!! Hope life is treating you well in Melbourne!! 👍

@@WalkNebraska life is good thank you 😊 God bless you.

@@victoriapopaz5303 👍👍👍

Thank you so much! Looking forward to your next bike ride!!

Such a great part of town. There are some lovely homes south of Leavenworth between 50th and 60th Street. That entire area north of Hy-Vee is one of my favorite areas in Omaha. The retail options along Leavenworth St. west of 50th really have changed the past 5 years (sad to see Garda's go). I need to film that area before any additional changes take place. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment!! I appreciate the feedback! 👍

What are your thoughts on qualified immunity?

@@DemoMan-fq9zi when I became an officer I didn’t know anything about it. We were told in the academy we could be sued personally for our actions while in uniform. I personally treated people the way I wanted to be treated. The serve and protect that used to be on cruisers meant something to me. My dad was also a cop.

@@foxlife9366Dang, your videos aren’t bad, I like seeing the foxes. Pity they never gained traction. And as for cops, I sorta do feel for them. It was better when the country had a common European ancestry before Lyndon ruined all of that

That's awesome. It is a great neighborhood! I grew up in District 66 and am a grad of Westside (my dad was a guidance counselor in the district for many years). I remember taking art classes at Pipal Park as a kid in the 1980s. I will definitely return for more walks in the neighborhood and will capture more of the area in the future. Thank you so much for watching!!

Thank you so much for watching and for the kind comments! Stay tuned for more walking videos from my state! Have a nice weekend. Hope things are treating you well in Florida!! ☺☀🚶📸

@@WalkNebraska Hot and humid here 93F, but that is just typical summertime. You are very welcome, looking forward to more videos💕🙏

@@mariemorgan7759 I'll bet it is warm. We were in the Orlando and Daytona area in 2019 in April (it was fairly cool at that point - and beautiful). I hope to see more of Florida in the future!! 👍

Thank you for the kind comments. It really is a beautiful neighborhood in Omaha! And I will be getting more video of the neighborhoods that surround it (along with other great neighborhoods here in Omaha and across state of Nebraska). Stay tuned!! 🚶📷👍

Thank you so much for the kind comments. I work to make sure all the walks go from beginning to end without stopping. And yes, on hills I do sometimes have trouble catching my breath, but it is all part of the experience. Thanks for watching! Best wishes! 😊

Yep. The first 8:30 I am walking along Grover Street (until I take a left at Westgate Road).

I hope there aren't zombies in the neighborhood! 😯

Thank you so much! And thank you for watching!! I'll have to do more night walks here in Nebraska! 👍

Haha! I ended the video in the tunnel in the Elmwood Park Grotto because I thought it would be a need way to end it. But you do make an interesting point. The graffiti definitely contrasts with the beautiful homes and well maintained lawns in the adjacent neighborhood. ;)

Thank you for watching! We've had a lot of rain in Omaha this year (more than most years), but it has been fairly dry here the past couple of weeks. Take care!! 👍

Thank you for watching! It was a neat walk to record!!

Thanks for watching!

Thank you for watching!!

Interesting... 🐶
