Thanks, guys. I'll put the spoons back as soon as I'm done with them. Right now I'm using them to help dig out the answer to why my post count has gone down in the past two weeks...
So, we had a terrific trip. We started in Vancouver, and then proceeded up through the Rockies, which were lovely (except "Rocky IV," which has too many music montages--not to mention Apollo dies...). We saw Jasper, Banff, Lake Louise, lots of lakes and moutains and waterfalls and stuff, and we ended up in Calgary. We were only there one night, but it was the night of Game 6 in the Stanley Cup finals, which meant that the whole city was going crazy. If they had won, we would never have gotten any sleep--as it was, we still had to get up at 2:20 in the morning to make our flight. Anyway, after a two-day drive, we're back in Iowa and getting ready to move. Should be exciting. I'm looking forward to getting back in the loop here at MC, and I'll talk to you all soon.
