Sorry for the silence...I expected to be able to get at least one or two blog posts off in the past two weeks, but being away from home, with no childcare, and with the added demands of being a daughter and a sister, on top of the usual roles of mother, wife, scientist, and professor, have left me feeling quite overworked. I'm looking forward to returning to the routine of life in Mystery City in a few weeks.

Some people dismiss the Midwest as "flyover states" but there really are some interesting things to contemplate here. A few photos coming up tomorrow morning.
