Taking a quick trip to Iowa

I'm headed to Iowa after work today, with my mom. We're going to visit my Grandma Groenwoldt, who is in the hospital and not feeling well. I haven't seen her since my road trip in 2001, when I stopped to see her at her little retirement village apartment. It's sort of a rush trip so I'm feeling somewhat frazzled; like I've forgotten lots of things. I'll also be missing Jennifer and Patrick's wedding, which I feel really bad about. Stephanie will be going, though, so hopefully she's take lots of photos.
