The Places You'll Go

Grand Island, Nebraska - Like a Hurricane and The Witch's Bridge


Listen Later

Don't sleep on the Corhusker State! Though Laken and Chance may not be big fans of their home state's western neighbor, they set their distain aside to take us on a Great Plains adventure (kind of). This week Chance will detail the tragic tale of the Schoolhouse Blizzard of 1888 and Laken recounts the story of the Witch's Bridge and ponders a possible curse.
