Wingman;
No sir, I am not German. My grandparents were from Switzerland (Aargau). I speak German somewhat (Swiss) and can read it pretty well.
I live in Pittsburh, PA where there are many people with German backgrounds. I enjoy singing in the Teutonia Manner und Damen Chor and the Mannerchor Helvetia. I also play in a German Band (tuba). Years ago, when I was teaching, I taught a beginning class In German. Trying to teach Americans a foreign language is a daunting task.

I would be happy to receive any posts in German from you and I thank you in advance. I have never been to Nebraska, or any other state in that immediate area. I understand the terrain is flat. I hope you enjoyed your stay in the US. I sure have enjoyed my trips to Germany.

Hi Leo. Yes i enjoyed it very much ;)
I was in the western area called the penhandle. The State is generally flat and has large agricultural areas. However in the northern panhandle there are the Sandhills (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandhills_(Nebraska)) which are very green and lovely even during summertime.Scotsbluff monument (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scotts_Bluff_National_Monument). A rock formation which i had the honor to hike ;)
