Cynically Optimistic

I have posted some photos from my brief encounter in Iowa. I really need to send a big huge thank you to the Utechs for letting me crash in their guest room after a lovely evening. Also, a huge huge thank you to the Roethlers for allowing my family to basically take over your living room and deck for the evening. You don't know how happy I was to hang out with all of you. Oh, and here's a picture of my new car. More on it later.
