Quick post from a porch on mount rushmore

I am writting this from my phone so please forgive the misspellings. A lot has happened since mil-rock. We drove from there to DES moines Iowa! On the way we stopped at frank Lloyd wright's house on the rock in somewhere Wisconsin. We were all pretty excited, paid the 12 bucks to get in and began enjoying the scenery. The was an infinity hall way which was just a hallway that went out into the sky and had NO supports! It was also built in such a way that it seemed like it was going on forever. We go through the whole house talking about how great frank Lloyd wright was and when we got to the gift shop at the end there was nothing about frank. How ever there was a book on alex Jordan. Curious I picked up the book and read the back cover "alex Jordan, the man, the dream, the house." it was the alex Jordan house not the frank house... Needless to say it was still pretty awesome! Then we made it to just outside of Des moines as it was getting dark and scrambled to find a place to sleep. Luckily we found a state park on saylorville lake. We watched the sunset over the road, words can't describe how truly awesome it was. Hopefully I'll throw up a pic sometime soon.

The next morning we went for a quick swim in the lake and then were on out way to downtown DM. it was a quick day downtown because no offense to our Des moineian friends but there ain't a lit going on. When we asked what there was to do in Des moines, people laughed at us, which reallly threw us off because what we usually get is... How old are you guys? After the laughter died down, we left Des moines.

We swiftly made out way to Omaha and we didn't know what to think. No place to stay, no plans, no idea what to do. But it didn't matter we were in the home of saddle creek. We were ready to rock.

Well I'm off to sleep. I'll let AJ fill younin up to now.


Signed,
Adam
