Iowa, Arkansas, and Vegas

On Friday, we traveled to the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines and visited “Freight Train,” the largest pig at the Fair.  Freight Train weighs in at a hefty 1,523 lbs.!   After viewing some of the exhibits, Dad gave a speech and ate a pork chop on a stick.  It was so much fun to walk around and meet supporters.  I also wanted to go on some of the rides, but unfortunately we didn’t have time. From there we flew to Arkansas where Dad held a press availability and attended a finance event. After spending a few hours on the plane, we were tired from the long day but played a practical joke on a senior member of the campaign staff. Finally, we landed in Las Vegas – my favorite place to be an insomniac!  Dad addressed the 87th Annual Convention of Disabled American Veterans and attended a series of meetings.  Then he and I were able to have dinner together on Saturday night. Next up, Pennsylvania and Michigan… Song of the Day/Weekend: “That’s Not My Name” by The Ting Tings
