Lincoln is home to many oaks and they are providing a final flourish of fall color. For those coming to Lincoln for Thanksgiving weekend or the football game, the Nebraska Capitol will be open Saturday November 26 from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and Sunday November 27 from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. The Capitol will be closed on Thanksgiving Day and the Friday after, but tours and trips to the observation decks will be available on Saturday and Sunday.
