Headed home from the Twin Cities meetup. Sitting in a truck stop cafe typing this on the iPad. Isn’t technology wonderful?

Met a lot of folks, saw a number I knew, heard Bachman, Cain and Pawlenty. More on that later.

Long road trip but definitely worth it. There’s 30years of road warrior in me that needed this. There’s also the fact that one can get isolated and a little disconnected from life and reality sitting in a house or office daily writing about what one reads or sees on TV.

So it’s nice to get out and see a bit of the country and people again.

That means 12 states in a week. Call it a “grounding” experience. Makes you remember what a vast, beautiful and great country we have.

By the way, if you’re ever near Little Chicago south of Minneapolis (off I-35), stop into The Steer for breakfast. Get the “Trucker’s Special”. Good stuff.
