The Beta Kappa chapter at Drake University
August 29 - September 1
Welcome to Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa!
The adorable welcome I got at the airport... Even after I arrived exactly 24 hours later than originally planned because my flight was cancelled in Reno!
The Beta Kappa facility! Don't worry, I know... Best outfit ever.
It was pouring rain! Of course, it was the only day it rained during my visit, but it made my campus tour a little more interesting.
Some of the members who battled the storm with me to show me Drake's campus.
Right outside the library!
Every year, this huge sidewalk on campus is repainted by tons of campus organizations for the Drake Relays! The Beta Kappa chapter recently celebrated its 90th birthday on campus!
Drake had some really neat buildings... This is Old Main!
Drake is the home of the Bulldogs! But apparently, the Drake squirrels are pretty famous here too! Not kidding, they're everywhere and extremely friendly!
They have a giant sun dial on campus where you can tell time by looking at the shadows!
This is the kissing rock. Drake students believe that if you come to this rock and kiss, you will eventually get married. Apparently, students see couples get engaged here all the time!
In front of Drake Stadium!
*If you're ever in Des Moines, Palmer's deli does an awesome turkey sandwhich on wheat with amazing cranberry sauce and cream cheese!
Headed home bright and early tomorrow morning to see my family! Thankfully, all is well in Annapolis with the Rosenbergs after last weekend's awful weather.
For now, love from Des Moines, Iowa...
