chi-town + car time

As my dear friend and landlord Laura just posted, we had a fabulous time in Chicago last weekend!!!

Here's a quick update of what our car time yielded:

lots of questions for each other, & new discoveries
crazy conversation, billboard-reading, & sound effects
re-hashing the Weepies concert...over and over (this was mostly me, I think...)
noting the neo-European flair of rural Iowa & Illinois towns (Paris, New London, New Berlin)
Laura - progress on wedding stuff
Megan - progress in this book
Alicia - recovering back at the homestead from our whirlwind visit and her inaugural Halloween party
Me - a yak



This silly piece of art is truly a testament to the relaxing atmosphere (and steady driving) of my good friends. The time we spent chatting, snoozing, crafting, reading, singing, and watching the scenery go by -- in the city and the car -- was truly refreshing for my heart and soul. And, I now have a stitched yak.
