I don't know if that place was around when I was there. If it were, I can't imagine the group I was with wouldn't want to go there.

There's a bunch of those across the country, and am sorry to say chain Chicago style restaurants are usually not very good.
Never been to an Old Chicago though.

I thought they hated each other.

I should have also said I've been spoiled by Colorado the last 5 years too.
Omaha seemed like a decent place driving through but I would miss the mountains too much

Colorado is pretty awesome. The one reservation I have about CO is the distance to the coast. That aspect of it would drive me a little nuts. My biggest beef with Omaha, is what you just said...it's so damn flat. Florida is too I guess, but I love the beach about as much as I love the mountains. Currently doing the beach thing, but am strongly considering moving up to western NC at some point in the next few years for a change of pace.
That said, Omaha is actually a pretty great place to live. Really low unemployment, good schools, cost of living is fairly cheap and there is a lot more to do there than most people realize. I think the metro area is somewhere around 800k people, but things are pretty spread out. They keep building further and further west. Eventually I am guessing that it will basically connect with Lincoln.The Old Market is a lot of fun...lots of great restaurants, bars, art etc down there. Pretty easy to get around, traffic is rarely bad. Also a kick ass local music scene (at least there used to be). Edit> Looks like it is still going strong: http://www.omaha.com/article/20120327/GO/303279911
Prope, if you are serious about moving there at some point...I can give you a run down on all the areas to help you whittle down where you might want to live. It's been over 10 years since I lived there, but I doubt that much has changed.

I lived in FL for almost 4 years and got all of the coast living out of my system. I've wanted to live in CO since I was in Boy Scouts as a kid.
I think every big city is kinda similar. There are nice parts and shitty parts to every place. For me, it's what is available to do outside the metro area

Why Naples?, it's full of old people and semi-old people with breast implants.
Try 40 miles north, Ft. Myers actually has a night life.

I've noticed a lot of Chicago area transplants in SW Florida, for whatever reason.

Seeing crowds of Bears fans at away games it looks like there are Chicago/IL transplants everywhere. I know there are a shitload of IL transplants here in Denver

There are a bunch in Central FL as well. It was more a comment on the concentration level. For example, South FL (Miami, Palm Beach County) seems to be mostly New Yorkers and people from Boston. Central FL is kind of a mixed bag. SW FL seems to skew more heavily to the Chicago area and midwest in general.

It's quiet and relaxing. Plus my grandparents had a house there.
No doubt about that, I lived near 41 and Pine Ridge for 2 years...they roll up the streets at 10PM(including weekends).
You would probably like Sarasota better, just as quiet but not too far from Tampa.
