Iowa and Wisconsin

We stopped here yesterday, always a fun place to browse, and actually passed up the baked goods, chocolates and jams for two fresh tomatoes and peaches a young Amish man was selling.

Cary didn't get a picture of his horse, but this was his wagon. I took him some of my plastic bags, because he didn't have any to give the customers when they bought anything.

We found someone's debit card in the parking lot; I turned it into the lady at the front desk, but she looked clueless about to with it, so I hope the owner gets it back or at least realizes it is missing soon!

And wouldn't you know it--even in the parking lot of the welcome center, Cary found two Model As to photograph!

We are camping in farm country! Soybeans as far as the eye can see! Tuesday morning it was cool enough to turn on the heat in the trailer a little while and wear long sleeves.

Barely September, but we love seeing hints that fall is actually on its way!

And this wonderful place is actually a rest stop along Interstate 80! Many of the rest stops in Iowa are wonderful works of architecture; I especially like this one dedicated to writers. Even the picnic tables have something on them about writing.

America's River, the Mississippi, at Dubuque.

More farmland, around our campground, the Rustic Barn, near Keiler, Wisconsin

We took a walk after supper. A perfect day, Traffic wasn't bad; weather was perfect.

Tomorrow we get to Cary's cousin's home in Random Lake where we will park until the 9th, so don't look for any pictures until after that! I probably will be able to occasionally go in and use Marilyn's computer to check email and (maybe) update the blog, but stay tuned for lots of pictures later!
