"Jingle Bells" by Master Tone & "Amazing Grace" by Yule This eighth and final Xmas video was panned and zoomed from diagonally across the street from a North-Westerly direction. The videography was done right after sunset and after a three-inch snowstorm -- under very frigid conditions!! Please revisit our YouTube channel by simply Googling: kimbnebritelites

At 1,653 metres (5,242 feet), Panorama Point is the highest natural point in Nebraska. Panorama Point is located in southwestern Kimball County, near the point where Nebraska and Wyoming meet on Colorado's northern boundary.

Bushnell, Nebraska is located in Kimball county at the tri-state border between Colorado, Nebraska, and Wyoming. In this recording I drove from the railroad tracks (parallel to the Lincoln Highway, US 30) to the town's community center. The town was named after Cornelius Scranton Bushnell (July 19, 1829 -- May 6, 1896) - an American railroad executive and shipbuilder who was instrumental in developing ironclad ships for the Union Navy during the American Civil War. At the time of my visit, in 2012, the Bushnell's population was estimated to be about 125. Bushnell sits at an elevation of 1,485 metres (4,872 feet).
