    And thank you all for your hospitality. All the Polk folks I've met during my mid-west run have been nothing but welcoming.
    From Steve, Hannelore and Skylar in the QC to Ryan and Robin in Des Moines. TonyB and Brian in Chicago.....
    Thanks to you all.
    They have invited me into their homes, showed me around the town, driven over an hour for a dinner in the middle of Illinois.
    It's not just a group of people here talking, learning and sometimes getting into fisticuffs about a hobby. But a bunch of great friends that have yet to meet face to face.
    I had my reservations about coming out here to Iowa. Wake up, change lights, deal with the utility, sleep and do it again.
    If ANY of y'all find yourselves in Iowa....
    Look these folks up and stop by for a while. Nothing but good people.
    Thanks again from the bottom of my heart, or in Robins case...my stomach...
    Hell of a cook she is.
    I'll see y'all soon and my door is always open should you come to NC.
    Thank you Iowa....

    Always good to get out and put a face to the carnival that happens around here. Good people indeed. I trust once you share a meal or a bar stool with some folks here, these petty differences would melt away. In spite of his online persona, Russ is a cool cat and all around great dude.....least I think he's a dude, didn't check myself. :)

    Safe journey Russ, give Linda our best....and I hope the boys don't have a Jolly Roger flying above the house when you get back.

    I do believe that's exactly what Outback had to do after we left. For those who never met Russ, I did manage to take a quick pic before we left........

    Knowing Tony's wine fetish, you probably swigged his glass when he went to the restroom

    You know a fight is serious when shirts come off. There's just no real way to have a serious fight with your shirt still on. Simple physics, really.

    Hey, I have to pay extra for the ounce of wine! Besides, if they give us a choice ( 6 or 9 oz) and were going to pay extra for it, yes I am going to weigh it up. I know not everyone carries a scale around but, when it comes to wine, you got to keep the bartenders honest!

    Anytime you are back, please let us know!!!
