Growing up, my dad was a civil engineer for the Nebraska Department of Roads. As kids, my brothers and I loved learning about his work. My dad would take us on Sunday road trips across Nebraska for “inspection tours” to check up on our state’s infrastructure.

Spring is here and you know what that means… its asparagus season. Asparagus is the favorite perennial vegetable. If you happen to be one that loves this vegetable, you can grow it yourself with a little know-how.

As we approach the end of our 22 nd season, I would like to thank our audience for trusting us to bring them health information that is current and accurate. There are many doctors out there who cannot make the same claims as the Prairie Doc’s and I would like to take this opportunity to help sort out those charlatans and quacks from trusted sources of health information.

Title IX was passed by Congress more than 50 years ago to level the playing field for girls and women. It prohibits sex-based discrimination in sports and education programs that receive federal funding. Recently, Joe Biden’s Department of Education (DOE) released new Title IX rules that radically rewrite the law. The rewrite threatens the progress and safety of American girls and women in education and athletics. I’m standing with women across Nebraskaagainst these radical new policies.
