Happy Monday!

This week’s “Jill didn’t know this about Nebraska” article takes us to the Sandhills, specifically Scotia, and to a defunct chalk mine.

I have been through this area multiple times, but have not noticed the mine or the signs along the highway. You can bet I will stop the next time I am there and the mine is open.

Have any of you visited the Happy Jack chalk mine? What did you think?
