Hello friends! I’ve been wandering around the Midwest the last couple weeks, and somehow I’ve escaped the endless corn fields and found a place with WiFi. Phew.
While it can take a little longer to appreciate the beauty of Iowa’s open road compared to, say, rugged Utah’s, it’s all part of the lovely process. I’m still enjoying my #RunningTo life on the road, and I’m excited to explore more of this mysterious Midwest I’ve not seen much of.
Check out my favorite moments from Omaha, Kansas City, and St. Louis!
O! What a slogan.Chef Boyardee lives in Omaha! I thanked him for all his raviolis consumed upon first moving out.Omaha at night! Not too shabby.Omaha’s pedestrian bridge over the Missouri River, connecting two of the most HAPPENING states.Returning to Kansas City for the first time since last year’s IHOP conference.

Stay tuned next time for some assuredly touristy pictures of the St. Louis Arch! And do you live in Arkansas, Oklahoma, or eastern Texas? Hit me up if you’d like to grab coffee or a meal or even have a couch I could crash for a night or two!
