Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.
I will be in winterset but dsm is a 30 min drive (no biggie) my dad is drake alumni so I'm very familiar with the areaSorry to hear about this Jed. I've gone through a similar situation and have empathy for your situation. Thankfully my wife and I decided to ultimately reconcile but I understand that that does not always happen. I'll be praying that everything works out for the best for you and your family no matter what the final outcome.
Not sure where your farm is but I do get to Iowa on a fairly regular basis since my daughter went to school on Ames and decided to stay. (She currently lives in Des Moines near the Drake campus) I also do a fair amount of business across the state from Newton to Cedar Rapids to Waterloo to mason city and over to Sioux city. ( Des Moines as well). Send me a PM with your info and maybe we can get together sometime on the next couple of months for a smoke.
Take care and hold your head high.
