So great to be back with friends

Wow, thanks to all my friends in Iowa City, my 50th birthday might have been my best birthday yet.

Even though I've been away almost three years, it is gratifying to know the nest of friendships there still holds strong. Sure, I have a few soft places to fall in Texas, but nothing can replace my dear friends in Iowa City.

Too bad the visit had to be so short. Conversations too rushed. Hello's too quick. But thanks to all of you who came to Friday's bagels at the UIF to say hi; to those who hosted parties and opened their arms to Monte, to those who greeted me on the street as if I'd never left.

Back in Houston this morning, before I fly off to Corpus Christi for the state historical commission's annual conference. I'm speaking about web marketing on Friday afternoon, then head back home on Tuesday.
