Is this Heaven?

Yes!

(It's Iowa!)

Last weekend, I was back in Eldridge, Iowa for my North Scott High School reunion.

I had a little time after dinner with my family, so I drove around my old "neighborhood".

This is the view from the house I grew up in.



I'm always amazed at how straight the rows are.



We don't have these in New York.



Or these...



Or these!



I stopped to see a friend who couldn't make it this time...





then drove into town.



(Just to compare, this is the view down 9th Avenue in New York.)



Then I walked into Al & Gerry's Tavern, and a guy I've known since the 3rd grade gave me a big hug and said "Welcome home!".

And, I was!
