He wanted to become a farmer, but lands in Iowa began to rise in price, so he came to Omaha, where he looked up homesteads and chose 160 acres in Saunders County. He went by rail to Fremont, where he crossed by ferry and then followed the Platte River until he came to the present town of Linwood. From there he went south, in search of his homestead. After he had gone about twelve miles, he stopped on the farm of a Mr. Garrett, to ask the direction. Garrett told him the homestead lay many miles further south, on Oak Creek, near the present town of Valparaiso. He advised him to buy a farm a few miles south, from a certain American, which Kastl did and settled on it. It was near the present town of Prague and the old rural church settlement called Plasi. Hajek followed Kastl, they being friends. He settled near Linwood.
