Iowa, I salute you.

You know, I judge the states by their rest stops. Iowa rules supreme. It's breezy and 77°, the sun is setting over the semis on I-80, and we're sitting outside with our laptops at a picnic table — and we can plug in our power cords and pick up free WiFi.



We're somewhere between the 500th and the 600th mile of our trek home from Boulder.
