iowa i love ya, iowa iowa i love ya

seven years ago i spent several hot summer weeks in iowa, measuring corn. i'm not kidding. my brother helped me out too and got a killer sunburn (and chunk of cash). i didn't have great thoughts about iowa then. i preferred to be seattle, despite iowa's beautiful rolling hills. at the time, i was naive enough to think of iowa as clearly too convervative for me to spend time in...

but, what what! this week they proved me wrong. yay!
