Outdoor Plates While it may require more thought to interpret than others, the plate Neal Kratochvil of Columbus has on his truck shows his passion: "Want to Hunt." Regardless of how many new vehicles, or license plates, Kratochvil has, his message remains the same. If you have a unique outdoor message plate you would like to share, or know someone who does, e-mail a photo (high-resolution, JPEG format only, please) along with your hometown and a brief description of the interests expressed on your license plate to Eric.Fowler@Nebraska.gov. Corrections: In the December, 2016 issue on page 18, Alexandra Mayes, who is holding Creighton Scott's artwork, is misidentifi ed. We regret the error.
