We thought it would be good, and in a way, it has served my bride well, as she has had to hunker down and study for her grad classes. But we miss being able to walk out our door and walk, not drive, to all of the stuff we enjoy. Right now, whenever we want to do anything, instead of just spontaneously getting up and doing it, we have to go through a big decision process, because we have to think about the hour drive there and back. When we're in Iowa City, even a drive to some place isn't a big deal--5 or 10 minutes across town, basically.
