hey sarah! good to see you back on slog. i was in Iowa a few weeks ago and i can confirm that i prefer 43 and rain to interesting ice storms. where do you go for entertainment? what kind of fun do you have there? can you walk to several different and interesting shopping areas? any good cafes? i know the answer to these questions already but thought i'd remind you why every single person under the age of 30 i talked to in Iowa couldn't wait to leave. Iowa is boring. The people who live in Iowa, however, are some of the nicest people i've ever met. hope to see you back in Seattle!
I'm actually warming to Des Moines. A lot of good bars and the like.
My favourite snow story on the news was the fireman talking, on camera, about downed powerlines when all of the sudden, a couple behind him explode into sparks and start a fire.
Besides, how bad can a city that's hosting the Drinking Liberally National Conference be?
The ice on the bikes is beautiful. They almost look like aliens or something on another planet.
I don't understand the Department of Homeland Security message at all. Doesn't your home count as shelter? Do they mean "seek shelter that has power"? If they're telling you to leave the house and go wander the icy city, looking for someplace with electricity, doesn't that seem more dangerous than staying put in your home?
so says you. 45 degrees and rain? winter in seattle. paradise.
The blades of grass look like a school of those little see-through fish, where all you can see to tell that they are there are their eyes and their intestines.
The Des Moines Art Center, icy or not, is wonderful. Arguments could easily be made about how it's much better than SAM.
Not only was school cancelled in the wake of a particularly nasty ice storm when I was a little kid, but we got right out there with our skates and played ice hockey on a neighborhood street.
Lovely to look at, but hell to walk on.

We (in Renton) had an ice storm like that about 4 years ago.
