A Day of Discovery: Journey’s Mystery Trip

More than 50 Journey friends, ranging in age from their 40s to their 90s, boarded a Husker motorcoach and set off on our first Mystery Trip since 2019. With a theme of Celebrate, Commemorate, and Savor, we explored six unforgettable stops across three Nebraska counties — each revealed through rhyming clues and shared laughter. From Polish pastries to Greek dancing, cider sipping to heartfelt moments honoring Vietnam veterans, and petting everything from alpacas to a sloth named Lucy, this fall-friendly adventure was packed with heart, history, and a whole lot of fun.

A Medicare readiness checklist

If you’re already enrolled in Medicare, the annual open enrollment period (Oct. 15 to Dec. 7) gives you the chance to review your current coverage, compare it with other options, and switch to another plan for the following year if you’d like. We’ve put together an annual enrollment checklist, complete with helpful information to help you get the ball rolling.

(Note that open enrollment is not for you if you are just about to sign up for Medicare for the first time. You get your own enrollment period to do that, and we have a resource for that, too!)
