Man, that makes for an expensive hobby!!!LOL

Good morning Iowa, raining like crazy over here!

Good morning Pat, good morning Iowa.

It doesn't seem many people from Iowa check in here. My wife and I are planning a road trip back there next year we will be around the Newton, Maxwell and Altoona area. I have few FTE friends along the way a want to meet up with. Our time frame is not going to allow for a lot of side trips but hoping to meet a few people on our trip.

Welcome to Monday!

I check in regularly. I am a bit farther east to Newton, over by the Amana Colonies. I am about 45 miles away from Newton.
