The Great MS River Road – Dubuque, Iowa – Day 4
I headed into Iowa along the Great Mississippi River Road. Fields of Opportunities is the Iowa slogan posted on the state welcome sign. Unsure what that really means but since I have been to Iowa numerous times over my 53 years I knew one thing was certain…fields upon fields of corn and soybeans! Opportunities…well my hope was an opportunity to see a part of Iowa I have never seen before. I accomplished that as soon as I had crossed the boarder into the state.
The Great MS River Road- Winona- Day 4
I was now clean of the Whitewater State Park mud and back on the road heading towards Winona, Minnesota. This historic town is located along the banks of the Mississippi River and almost every canoe paddler in the world knows the canoes that have made this small town famous: Wenonah Canoes.

I did have a ton of text message traffic between me, a friend, and the Hubby but in the end none of that fits the criteria.

I really don’t try to be strange or to have strange things happen around me. I really don’t scare easy either. Although, the universe sometimes has other plans for me and thus the Hummm file continues.
A Visit to a Scary Scottish Cemetery
To start the week of scary here at The Cedar Journal I promised that I would post our scary cemetery story on the week of Halloween. I now realize that a great deal of travel and other scary stuff has happened to me since then and so by the end of the week this may just seem like cool photos of a nice Scottish Cemetery.
