Iowa!

We decided to travel southwest to Iowa and will eventually drop down into Missouri and then start across Illinois in the next couple of days.  We stopped for Wisconsin cheese on our way today.  The Carr Valley Cheese Factory had the most amazing selection. We walked out with Cranberry Cheddar, Horseradish Cheddar and some Cranberry Chipotle Cheddar.  We passed on the 10-year old cheddar because we still have some excellent Tillamook Cheddar and how much cheese can 2 people eat? 

We have stopped at Maquoketa Caves State Park.  The caves are closed but the campground is open and we are the only people here.  It is beautiful and the dogs are having a great time.  Maggie played Frisbee with us and we loved every minute of it.

We are planning on visiting the Amana Colony tomorrow.
