the iowa state fair.

Today, the Iowa State Fair. It was burning hot out, but I didn't really mind so much. I didn't get to really do much of anything, but I saw a butter Tiger Woods, a butter tiger, a butter cow and a hell of a lot of really top-of-the-line produce. Plus, part of a talking parrot show, and some really enormous Iowans. They grow 'em big out there. Corn-fed, one might say. I had a great time, and I understand why Carin likes coming here.

After we spent the better part of the day traipsing around, we met up with her sister Caitlin, her brother Chris, her father and his Scottie, her mother and her Ron. We were treated to a rather lovely evening out at "The Cheesecake Factory", where I failed utterly to leave room for the title dish. I gave her father tiny bottles of Tabasco sauce I'd picked up at the duty-free shop, and thanked him again for the help on my resume.

And at nine o'clock central time or thereabouts, we set out from "The Cheesecake Factory" and started driving east, east, far to the east.
