To Ames (4/6/8 -- what do we appreciate? A Bed!)




We headed to Ames on Sunday, and stopped early to visit my parents. We had a nice visit -- capped with several trips to the new 24-hour Wal-mart in my hometown of Ames to (a) replace the air-mattress-pump that, although it worked fine in Pittsburgh, was an inert blob once we got to Iowa, and (b) to return the "car-cigarette-lighter-only" pump I bought on trip (a) and get a model that might get the mattress inflated before the next day. The dogs enjoyed my mom's backyard, and, overall, it was a nice (although quick) stopover.
