We have landed in Des Moines, checked in, and actually got a little workout and my lap swimming done. Can't find a hill out here at all. Going to checkout downtown a little tonight. Big tailgate being hosted by WR Jake Drwal's family, whose from Omaha ( about 2 hrs away). Weather looks perfect for football tomorrow night.
Big brouhaha out here about Drake's new 'marketing strategy' called "D+". I understand what they're trying to say, but I have to agree it, initially, gives the wrong impression for a school with a very good academic reputation. That's the only news. No 'bulletin board material' seen in the paper. Team seems very confident and up.

Never thought I'd be envious of anyone in Des Moines, but that changed this afternoon. I'd love a full report from the Drwal shindig!

Didn't bring my laptop. Using the freebie in the hotel lobby that happened to be open. But I'll do what I can!

You have to eat at the Drake Diner, 2 blocks from campus. You have to get breakfast Smothered with the sausage gravy. Wish I was out there. Enjoy.

Cardiologist on call?

Enjoy, Engineer fans. I will refrain from likening you team color to the local cow pastures for the duration. Sort of. Maybe.

Win one for the PL.
