Visitors n Shakes

Big news at Drake: yesterday Obama came to the residence of our Athletic director, and was even quoted as saying “Go Bulldogs.” (There is reason enough to come to Drake.) Today Justice Scalia is coming to give a lecture. (Long time readers will remember Roberts my first year.) Tomorrow is fireworks! It should all be a pretty cool week.
I went to Drake Diner last night. If you ever find yourself near Drake, in Des Moines or West of the Mississippi, you need to stop at Drake Diner for the shakes. Chocolate and Peanut Butter milkshake is guaranteed to cure any school stress and may also be linked to the elixir of life.

A friend and I explored Des Moines the other day, this is probably my favorite shot of our time together. As I am currently stateside, the musings here will lose some of their "frontline" flavor. I hope to replace them with different photographs of my travels and the Drake area. Enjoy!
