Meeting in Denver

That puts roughly 7 hr 1 min of driving on the Albuquerque side and 10 hr 13 min on the Omaha side — the fairest single meeting point among the cities near the middle.
That's a half-day drive from each side, so Denver suits an overnight or a weekend rather than a quick coffee — long enough to want a reason to stay, short enough to drive.
