December 2nd – 4th

Friday

Columbus > Cedar Rapids, IA > Detroit > Cedar Falls, IA

Today was my first Friday off in months.  It was weird.

Had to get up early though because I wasn’t at all ready for my trip to Iowa (ie: laundry, packing).  Plus I had to go to the physical therapist and chiropractor.

Got to the airport on time.  Wow!

Flights were fine.

Landed in Cedar Rapids just before 5pm.  Then headed out on the hour drive to Cedar Falls.  

Got checked in to the hotel and then met up with a co-worker, also from Columbus, that I never get to see on the road.  We went to dinner and had a nice time swapping gossip and stories.  

It’s very cold in Iowa.

Saturday

Wofford vs 5 Northern Iowa

Patience.  That is the theme of today.

Can’t really get into details, but my goal today is to have patience.  It’s the only way I will get thru the day without being hauled off to prison.

Thankfully, I had several old friends working on my crew to help me giggle the day away!

At lunch, I had some time to check out the UNI-Dome.  I have been here before, but never had a chance to see the football side.

Where I put those photos - who the hell knows?

(Sorry)

After the game, my friend Matt and I tried to eat dinner at several places; but ended up at Panera because every place was packed.

Sunday

Cedar Falls > Cedar Rapids > Minneapolis > Columbus

I tried to get on earlier flights, but they were all sold out.  Now travel is literally going to take all day.
