Peoria, IL














Somewhere in Illionois...




























The Mississippi River...














The Heartland Inn
After riding for 13 Hours from Bham to IC..the Hampton Inn bumped us from our room.
We made the proper reservations, but housing was really tight there still because of the flood. So, we stayed at the Heartland Inn for the first night. Incidentally, this was the hotel's
first night open since before flood. None of the ground level rooms were available because
they was still under renovation.















Signs of the flood...
























The Campus















































The Old Capitol Building on the Pentacrest
The 'Cambus' System
University of Iowa provides FREE transporation to students and community members. There's 5 main lines...and so far, I've been lost of 4:5. Best lesson learned--don't hop on the first bus you see, actually take time to read where it's going.




My Building--Shaeffer Hall


































Downtown, IC
