<a href="https://nebraskaexaminer.com/2023/11/13/sandhills-ranch-with-dumbbell-name-and-rich-past-sells-to-locals-including-a-former-ne-lawmaker/">Nebraska Examiner</a>

LINCOLN — A storied Nebraska ranch — which grabbed national attention for its quirky name, size and whopping price tag — will live on in the hands of locals who have their own deep Sandhills roots.

Indeed, the two new owners of Dumbbell Ranch, who split the 15,500 acres in a $16.5 million purchase deal, reside on bordering family ranches.

Each has fond and personal memories of the Dumbbell, a founding ranch of the Nebraska Sandhills that’s situated in Cherry and Grant Counties.

Former State Sen. Al Davis of Hyannis claimed the larger part of the transaction — rangeland that had separated pieces of his own family’s OLO Ranch that also dates back to the late 1880s.

Davis had been interested since&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://hallhall.com/property-for-sale/nebraska/dumbbell-ranch/a095d00002U10JQ/">advertising began earlier this year,</a>&nbsp;noting the rarity of abutting property coming up for sale. Plus, he said, there’s a sentimental value.

“This is all a big neighborhood,” Davis said, stirring memories of his younger days when he’d visit the “big house” on the Dumbbell grounds. “When I was a kid we had card parties, rotating from ranch to ranch.”&nbsp;

Chris Gentry, the other buyer, penned an article for the local newspaper about his family’s historical ties to “The Great Dumbell Ranch.” It was written many months before the property hit the market.

“I begin this tale because of a street address,” Gentry wrote. “I am always asked, ‘Who named your road such a ridiculous name, Dumbell Road.”

Gentry, of the A Bar C Ranch, went on to write defiantly that the road was laid on “generations of great cattlemen that had nerves of steel, skin of leather, and the patience of Job.”

He also explained that over the generations, Dumbbell-related historical accounts, dates and spellings (including conflicting spellings for the ranch name — “Dumbbell” or “Dumbell”) have varied, depending on the source or author.

Undisputed is that the ranch — with its native rolling rangeland, hay-producing meadows, numerous lakes and artesian wells — has pressed on through changes of size, management, workers, heirs. The area Gentry and Davis bought in late October separates it from a family that had owned it for more than a century. It once was part of a larger Dumbbell that, decades ago, was divided among the children of Gustaf Edward Anderson and wife, Janie.

The result was three ranch sections: Pitchfork, 3 Circles and Dumbbell.

The house Gentry lives in today, on Dumbell Road, is on the old 3 Circles grounds.

“My Dad talked about being young and looking around the borders wondering which direction he could possibly grow,” Gentry wrote. “He never even considered the Dumbell, as it was solid as a rock.”

According to records filed in Cherry County, Gentry paid about $6.4 million for his roughly 4,800 acres, which, he said, brings his family property in the area to about 60,000 acres.&nbsp;

Davis’ roughly 11,000-acre, $10.2 million purchase boosts his family’s property to about 63,000 acres.&nbsp;

The sale transaction also reunifies parts of the original Dumbbell Ranch, which harkens back to the late 1880s and its founder, Dr. A.J. Plumer.

Davis, 71, said his grandfather, A.T. Davis, settled in the area in 1888 — and was a friend and neighbor to Plumer.

As the lore goes, the Dumbbell got its name when Plumer, during construction of the “white mansion” on the grounds, accidentally slammed a hammer on his thumb and exclaimed:&nbsp;Only a dumbbell would do that.

Over the years, Sandhills residents have become somewhat anxious as ranchland has turned over to out-of-state buyers, said Valentine-based Mark Johnson, a Hall and Hall real estate partner who brokered the Dumbbell deal.

Gentry joked that he wasn’t keen on Colorado folk buying into the neighborhood (a&nbsp;<a href="https://nebraskaexaminer.com/briefs/dumbbell-ranch-operation-in-nebraska-sandhills-poised-for-next-chapter/">Colorado family’s bid</a>&nbsp;to buy the Dumbbell fell through last summer).&nbsp;

“People are pleased,” Davis said, “that locals ended up buying the ranch.”

Anne Anderson Johnson, part of the family that had ownership interest in the Dumbbell for more than 100 years, also considers it a happy ending to her family’s era.

When trying to sell the property, Johnson (whose last name changed recently as she remarried) said that she&nbsp;<a href="https://nebraskaexaminer.com/2023/04/03/dumbbell-in-nebraska-sandhills-gains-spotlight-with-sheer-size-storied-past/">loved having been part of the ranch</a>&nbsp;but that the younger generation had other interests, and it was “time to move on.”&nbsp;&nbsp;She said then that she hoped to pass on the legacy to a family as opposed to a big entity or corporation.

Johnson said she’s “absolutely thrilled” with the new Davis and Gentry ownership and that parts of the original Dumbbell are joined again.

“It makes a wonderful, amazing story,” she said.

The Hot Sheets: November 12th, 2023

The brave women and men who wore the uniform, and their families, made great sacrifices to serve our country. As President John F. Kennedy once said: “As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words but to live by them.” Our veterans deserve not just our gratitude, but also our commitment. As a nation, we commit to give them the quality benefits and care they’ve earned. In Nebraska, we proved that is just the start. When I was Governor, we also committed to reducing the burdens our veterans face to maximize their benefits. It’s time Washington makes that same commitment.

That’s why this week I’ve introduced the Tax Cuts for Veterans Act in the U.S. Senate. My bill would make military retirement pay tax-free at the federal level. It is the fourth piece of legislation in my “Proven Nebraska Solutions Ready for America” package.

In 2021, at my request, Colonel Tom Brewer introduced LB387, which eliminated state income tax on military retirement benefits. LB387 was a big win for our state, for Nebraska’s job creators, and for military families looking to put down roots in Nebraska. It was not a Republican priority or a Democrat priority. It was a Nebraska priority. Not one state senator voted against it. It was a strong, bipartisan endorsement of a common-sense idea.

This policy has worked for veterans across Nebraska. Lawmakers in Washington should come together and do the same for veterans across the country. Doing so would give real relief to veterans and their families in this time of stubbornly high inflation. Consider an enlisted soldier, sailor, guardsman, or airman who serves for 20 years. My bill would result in tax relief of over $6,000 per year. That comes out to an extra $500 more per month. That’s extra money for necessities like groceries and gas, or even savings for the future or a rainy day.

In Nebraska, we proved it’s possible. It’s time to eliminate federal taxes on military retirement for veterans across the country. By passing my Tax Cuts for Veterans Act, we can take a significant step to better the lives of veterans and their families. I will never stop fighting to make sure our veterans get the support they’ve earned.

This Veterans Day, let us rededicate ourselves to showing our gratitude and respect to the 106,000 veterans living in Nebraska. Their courageous service should inspire us to help our community and country however we can. Working together, we can ensure that we fulfill our promises to those who have put their lives at risk to defend us.

County wide tones for ditch fire spreading into unharvested corn field in the Ogallala district. Resources included Command from Ogallala and KL. Brush trucks and tenders from all four agencies along with LEO for traffic control responded. KCEM Kling and MAC 60 responded with FLIR drone. Private farm equipment requested to create fire line. 

Center pivot utilized to halt forward progress of fire. MA requested from Grant due to minor equipment problems with two Keith county units. Structures threatened but not damaged. No injuries reported to IC. Approximately 50 acres of standing corn destroyed. 

The photo is at the point of origin from a poorly maintained semi trailer, west bound on 80. These duals separated from the trailer, crossed the east bound, miraculously not hitting anyone or anything, and the hot metal ignited the ditch and corn field. Semi continued traveling and has not been identified at this time. All units returned to service by 1700 hrs.&nbsp; &nbsp;

On November 8th 2023 at 3:50 pm, officers responded to the 900 block of S Taft St for reports of an assault. When they arrived, the victim informed officers that they were attempting to move out of 60-year-old Jahi Dumisani’s residence due to him acting strange for the last several nights. As they were getting ready to leave, Dumisani accused the victim of trying to steal from him and threatened to chop off their head.

A short time later, Dumisani grabbed a large machete that was roughly a foot and a half in length and struck the victim in the throat with the blade. Thankfully, due to the condition of the blade being dull and rusted, the victim only suffered minor injury to this area.&nbsp;

While officers were speaking with the victim, they were notified that a driver had just driven into a parked car in a parking lot in the 600 block of E Francis St. Officers on scene of the accident were able to identify the driver as Dumisani, who still had the machete in his hand. The officers on scene were able to talk Dumisani into dropping the machete and took him into custody without further issue.&nbsp;

After further investigation, Dumisani was found to be under the influence of drugs and did not have a valid driver’s license. Jahi Dumisani was incarcerated at the Lincoln County Detention Center for 2nd Degree Assault, Terroristic Threats, Use of a Deadly Weapon to Commit a Felony, DUI Drugs(3rd Offense), Criminal Mischief($5,000), No Proof of Insurance, Driving While Revoked, and No Valid Registration.

The Thanksgiving holiday starts with the busiest travel day of the year. With all the rushing around and holiday travel, it’s a great time to remind drivers and passengers to buckle their seat belts. In 2022, 129 (67%) of the 193 fatally injured passenger vehicle occupants were not wearing seat belts. Nebraska’s seat belt usage rate is still far below the national rate of 90.7 percent dropping to 76% in 2022!

The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office will be joining Law Enforcement across the Country to enforce seatbelt and child restraint usage from November 22nd through November 26th Deputies will be working overtime hours to watch for unsafe drivers during Thanksgiving week.
