As you can tell by either listening… Read More »Tenderloining – Gramma’s Kitchen – Walcott
The Little White City Another one of Shannon and I’s stops on the Southwest Iowa Road Trip was to Stanton. We went there for two reasons.

$80 The first scheduled stop on Shannon and I’s road trip itinerary was the grounds of a former 19th century cult that had a colony near Corning, called the French Icarians.

Observation I have wanted to visit the Cordova Observation Tower ever since I’ve known that it existed. Recently I finally got the chance, but because I wasn’t expecting to go there, I didn’t bring the lens I wanted to use to photograph it. I made do.

The focus of the trip was an interleague baseball matchup between the Chicago Cubs and Minnesota Twins. The Cubs won 8-2. Here are some pictures from the trip: Boonedocks… Read More »Twins vs. Cubs vs. Hamm’s Tall Boys
I don’t want to rehash the painful memories of being denied a trip to the Rusty Duck. It is sufficient to say that I was invited to a dinner to the Rusty Duck and then disinvited to the Rusty Duck by Sara. I hold no grudges against Sara or Shawn… Read More »Rusty Duck
