In Nevada, they're going on a bear hunt. There's a teddy bear parade in town for you to enjoy, and the Nevada Police Department is not missing out on the fun!

Nevada Iowa Police Department added a new photo.

And here's an "Easter egg" hunt of sorts for you.

The mother of a lifelong friend of mine is using her time in isolation to go through old boxes, and look what she found: It's my second-grade class picture. 

Look closely and see if you can pick me out of the crowd ... extra points if you guess my age.
