Starting from zero




Eighteen days is usually not long enough, but we will try to fit in a quick fall road trip to Colorado and Utah. This may sound like a lot of time, but we have to drive about 60 with the camper. I remembered to take a picture of the dash data center so I can demonstrate the time we spend on the road. 

Long days in the car are my favorite way to travel. There is plenty of time to watch the scenery flow by and think. We are heavy into tech so we are switching back and forth between two football games. Both North Dakota and Iowa State are losing. UND is playing #9 Washington so there was no hope for that. Iowa State is losing to Iowa so this game is more disappointing. Wait, I found gopher football. I think we have a winner. 

We also have plenty of cell data to burn so we can do pretty much whatever we want online. I am thinking we will watch Vikings football tomorrow. Of course, the driver will just have to listen. Maybe a glance now and then. 

There is not that much to see in Iowa and Nebraska so tomorrow will offer few photographic opportunities. Maybe a picturesque shot of a big cornfield against the setting sun or a picture of those giant wind turbines would be impressive. Yes, I may have said this to miff our many friends in Iowa and yes, we did spend most of our adult lives living in North Dakota with the exception of those funny hills in the west of the state is about as flat and uniform as it gets. I also have friends in Iowa who take some very nice photos so good photographers can find interesting shots anywhere. We will see.
