We arrived in Iowa City yesterday, in time to see some of the flood waters that are now receding in the city. Fortunately, Chris, Edie, and Annie's house is on relatively high ground, but many people who have lost their homes, and the university has suffered unbelievable damage.
Saturday, June 21, is the Summer Solstice, our 11th wedding anniversary, and the final big game day hosted by Chris and Edie. Many people showed up to enjoy the gaming, the food, and the company. See for details:

We are camped at the West Overlook campground on Coralville Lake, and parts of that campground are under water still. When we arrived and filled up on fresh water, people were looking at the water flowing over the dam spillway, something that would never happen in more normal times.
