As I count down my last few weeks in the great state of Iowa, I figured I should do some traveling here, before assuming I need to travel to the other side of the Earth to find some amusement. I found plenty of adventure this weekend, after traveling to the Maquoketa Caves and squeezing through the tightest spaces I could find (see picture). I was accompanied by Fearless Ravi Sharma, my big brother Chris, and the beautiful girlfriend Chavel Aron. It was a very fun trip and I am very happy that I got to get out and about in a beautiful area of Iowa. The park is very scenic with many boulders, moss, lichens, rivers, and (as the name implies) caves. I suffered quite a few abrasions and uncomfortable situations as I made my way through the few cramped caves at the park, but it was very fun, and the caves offered a wonderfully cool reprieve from the oppressive heat of the outdoors.
Oh, and as promised, here are the pictures of my new birthday presents!
I know the gifts seem to exude a martial aura, but I can assure you they are used in the most playful ways (mostly).
