Well Andrew, here we are standing at the on ramp to South 63 in Denver, Iowa. We

0:14.0

are about 12 miles from Waterloo, which is our destination for the day. We did

0:17.6

not make it all the way there because of some scheduling conflicts that were

0:21.4

our fault. So now we're going to actually do this. We're really going to put our

0:25.0

thumbs out and see if somebody picks us up. How optimistic do you feel at this
