I'm safely in Iowa

I have checked into my room at the Des Moines Downtown Marriott, stopped by the office space for the trial team (very, um, utilitarian) and gotten the laptop computer set up. I have internet access, yay. I have checked in with Rob and the girls. It is nice to have the webcam set up on the home computer so I can at least see them every day. I have done a yoga DVD to get the kinks out of my back from the drive and am about to toddle off to bed.

Peg, yawning
