I’ve spent the last three days doing some work for my brother-in-law’s new office. I put in a new phone system and helped some nice guys from a Des Moines tech company out of a jam by configuring their network switches. by the end of the weekend, I’m a bit tired of looking at a computer screen or thinking about technology.

Tammy and I are still in Des Moines for swhile longer. We’re making a run to the local upscale mall so I can say ‘hello’ to the Apple store and she can make a return or two. We’ll get lunch, fill up with gas and ice and then head home.

I feel like a smuggler; I have sweet corn a rye whisky in the trunk.
