Oh, the prairie! The west has been awesome and has treated us well. I thought that Ohio was rural and full of corn--until I came out here. Corn stalks for miles and miles! Iowa was a great state. The picture seen here was taken in Cedar Rapids. It was not quite the thriving metropolis that I had expected, but it was cute and quaint just the same. Be sure to check out the photos I've been taking at my flickr site (www.flickr.com/photos/jesspics). I update those as I can, but the blog part takes more time than I really have...these NADE conferences keep you busy!--so I'll try to let you in on my activiites as I have the chance.

Seattle
The Buckeyes are in Seattle this weekend to play the Huskies...
That's all I'm going to say about this right now...but it will be important a little bit later.

Blue Elf Shoe
A week from Friday we will embark upon our biggest road trip yet - The Great Plains. 2,000 miles, 9 states, tons of cities--all in 9 days. This will also be our 9th major trip together.
I can't wait!
We've been spending the evening compiling information from the many books I got out of the library, the internet, AAA, and various other resources to create a monster travel guide to remind us of the potential sites to see on our way and act as a little virtual scrapbook of our adventures.
During the process, Joe created this screen shot of our route, highlighting the "Blue Elf Shoe" shape. The "Blue Elf Shoe" first came into our lives as we searched out a restaurant in the Malá Strana section of Prague. There was a little corner restaurant that boasted an image that resembled a cute little blue elf shoe. We admired the place and when we were deciding on a route for our trip to the NADE Conference in Sioux Falls and saw the shape our tentative plan made, we couldn't pass it up.
I plan to photo blog on our adventures as we go, our hotels offer free WiFi. So, stay tuned next week to follow our travels as they happen! I can guarantee it will be an interesting read.
