Sometimes the most profound things are found in the most unassuming places, like a precious pearl in the shell of a humble oyster. You go about your day, perfectly content with the sublime reality that surrounds you. Every once in a while, though, you spot something that catches your attention and makes you appreciate that the unexpected is a gift. When these moments arise, treasure them. In fact, seek them out whenever possible. Search for the astonishing. Be on the lookout for the unanticipated. And, prepare for the unpredictable. Vacations are a perfect opportunity to find fortuitousness in the mainstream. Any holiday is a getaway from the daily grind, but only a few destinations can make you rethink your preconceived notions about a place. In America’s heartland lies one of those cities.

Well-known for its love of baseball and steak, Omaha also has such eclectic claims to fame as being the birthplace of the Reuben sandwich and Malcolm X.
