Progress, progress.

Heather: Everything is either in the house or garage. We finished unloading the truck Sunday and turned it in. By 11pm we had all the boxes moved in from the driveway and were ready to call it a day. I've almost got the kitchen put together. My goal was to cook dinner tonight but that may be ambitious. Jamie says he's going to make it out here. There is a super microbrewery pub/restaurant with a superb selection of tasty brews and two really great video stores with almost everything on our movie watching wish list. That, wireless internet, coffee shop extraordinaire, local short order diner for breakfast, and panini for lunch make the recipe for davi in iowa happy, happy, happy!

Jamie: Indeed....we are currently at the local pub/microbrewery drinking malty caramelly ale and reading online news. Today is the first day we have really been having fun here, although arriving and getting into the house was exciting. There is a fine selection of exploitation goodness at the video store here along with a whole section of Criterion collection flicks. Between the two, we should be able to entertain ourselves. Everything out here is cheap too. We actually have a big stack of DVDs at home that we paid about ten bucks to rent. I'm looking forward to work where I'll start getting to know some people, but this vacation time is really nice.
