More West Lake Shores thoughts....the ideal spot would be to have your home at the tip of one of the dong shaped isthmus'.  Much more shoreline than the suckers in concave inner coves.  Inner cove folk will probably tell you some bullshit about "protected from wave," but whatever.

i think we now know where dubai got their idea for their palm islands

Is that a fire pit on West Shores Lake Island?  I’ll bet the HOA keeps a tight grip on reservations for that bad boy.

SD, tell me more about these subdivisions west of town that are all built around mini man made lakes surrounded by farmland. 

I've seen them in FL/CA/Areas where it is nice but never expected to see so many outside of Omaha.


Those are former sandpits that got developed into high end subdivisions after the useful sand was all mined harvested removed.

Thank you for answering this question.

I wonder what happens on the West Shores Lake island?  For example does what happens on West Shores Island stay on West Shores Lake island?  Is it were the teens meet up for drugs and make outs?  Maybe used as ground zero for the neighborhood 4th of July fireworks display launch?  Pet cemetary? Omaha Garden of Nebraska Heroes?

It is definitely the #1 teen makeout spot. Just imagine sneaking out of your parents house off Jones circle, jumping into your canoe (no motorized boat or the parents would hear) and heading over to Jessica's dock off Leavenworth Circle where she is waiting. She jumps in your canoe and you paddle out to West Shores Island and listen to music on your phone while playing tonsil hockey for like 3 hours before you have to drop her back off.

I've never actually been to Omaha but I've been to it's sister city, Council Bluffs and it sucked.  So, I have no desire to go there.

Council Bluffs is total trash

WE CALL IT COUNCIL'TUCKY HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Ugh I'm trash

The 49’r (RIP) and Dundee Dell back when it was on Dodge street can be regarded in this group.

I have spent an abundance of time at Mr Toad too.

I have consumed multiple pitchers of Busch light at the 49er when I was right out of KSU. Like 2007’ish? And eaten shitty fried food at the Dell tons. RIP
