The Niobrara River cuts across most of northern Nebraska, in the same way the Platte does in the south. They both eventually flow into the Missouri river: the Niobrara does so near the town which shares its name, the Platte joining near Plattsmouth. This park is near the confluence, or coming together, of the Niobrara and the Missouri.

After getting our post and rubbing, we headed back to Grandma and Grandpa's for the the fireworks. It was a great start to the weekend.
This is an scenic overlook of the confluence of the Niobrara and a Missouri. |
We went for a hike to find our post. Bernadette found a walking stick along the way. |
Trying out our camera's black and white setting. Behind the girls is the town of Niobrara. In between the town and the lookout is the end of the Niobrara River. |
Zellie and Felicity enjoyed the freshly mowed grass. |
Got our post! |
