Back from Pella

I'm back from Pella, IA and ready to get to work. I had plenty of relaxing time off starting with a baseball game last Wednesday afternoon, a visit with my wife's sister and husband in Des Moines on Thursday and Tulip Time in Pella Friday and Saturday.

Pella was fantastic, a low-stress low-tech event centered around the Dutch culture in the town. When I have more time later today or tomorrow, I'll write some about the history and share more of the great photos.
