nine

see eight.

yes, in iowa now. crossed the border yesterday, and here for a few more days of work. weekend work as well, which is always a tough pill to swallow.

after a busy 15-hour day of work today, the boss and i decided to venture out for a little fun. the casino was an absolute bust, both because of the crappy atmosphere combined with the fact that neither he nor i really enjoy casinos in the first place.

the second stop was slightly better - a pool hall near the railroad tracks. sometimes these places are the best way to pass the time when traveling to such small towns in middle usa.

while i don't enjoy photographing these license plates, it does make for a pretty handy blip in a pinch.
