How to get out more when I travel all the time?

My job keeps me on the road for 4-6 weeks at a time with 2-5 week breaks in between.

I am always in a new city, some smaller and some larger. The work I do is typically done alone – I fly a small airplane for 4-6 hours a day taking photos of the land for industrial development.

I get so frustrated and can feel my brain literally melting when after the work is done I just sit in my hotel room. I’m currently in Omaha, NE. Whenever I look up “things to do near me” all that anyone ever posts is a bar or a restaurant list.

What can a person do when they travel to a new city for work? What would you do if you were me?
