Corn.
Okay, back from our little weekend extravaganza. Let me just give you all the basic facts. #1.) My grandparents are a little insane and I can’t really relate to them but I have to be nice to them for my fathers sake. #2.) They live one mile out of Britt Iowa, a little nothing town up in northern Iowa. They have a nice house, but theres not much to do so we have to entertain ourselves. There is NOTHING in that town.
Highlights.
*Sweet talking grandfather into letting the sisters and I take his brand new pickup for a spin, and cranking up classic Studer girl driving music which on this trip baisically consisted of ‘The Police’, Maroon5, The Goo Goo Dolls, and cd with ‘sister safe Greenday’. All to much fun, what is a more ‘farmer essence’ thing to do then drive around the country in a pickup? That is my question.
*On Saturday we went shopping and visited my Aunt Camilla. We found this coffee shop called ‘The Naked Bean’ and I was shocked at how much I enjoyed it. I don’t really know why, I have been in like thousands of coffee shops (They’re like ‘in’ now right? Maybe? *wink*) but this one just really got me. Perhaps it was because I had been exposed to NO culture for so long, heh, corn can do that to you.

I see you also share the discontentment of having relatives in "Podunk, USA".
I know the feeling. North Dakota's quite similar.
At any rate, glad you had fun. Really the best parts of trips like that is chillin' with people. It's quite suprising how much fun some people can have just riding around in a car around the countryside.
but then there's nothing quite like coming back home.
Ha, and while you have grandparents who live in the middle of nowhere, I chose to move in with mine because she lives in a city, instead of the middle of nowhere that my parents live in!
Though, soon, perhaps, they'll be here too.
i want to have coffee in every coffee shop
i have no idea how i took this long to stuble into your blog, sis, dear.
