Ok, it's been awhile......
Iowa has been great! The weather has been awesome. I have gotten to spend some time with old friends. The photo is the old gang. We worked together at U of I Hospitals & Clinics from 1974-78. Dwight was here too! We used to hang around together. I didn't get a picture of us, darn it! You just can't beat the Iowa countryside. Moo, moo, moo..............

River Junction Tractor Ride
The tractor ride was the main event last weekend. Friday night was a dinner with some entertainment. All the tractors were lined up and ready to go for Saturday morning.
I had 3 uncles riding tractors. There were 185 tractors participating in the ride that meandered thru small Iowa towns and rolling countrysides. They drove a route of over 60 miles.

Horse Auction - what memories!
My dad used to drop my cousin Glenda and I off at the sale barn and we would sit for hours and watch the horses run around the sale ring. There was a great ice cream bar that was sold there. It was ice cream dipped in chocolate and rolled in graham cracker crumbs. They still have those ice cream bars. Yum..... I had one!!! The amish are all over here. All sorts of baking goods, quilts and cheese.
