Fairport to (Port of) Dubuque, Iowa

Back on the road again heading north to Dubuque. Every road was a little two lane county road, no interstate or highway. And some of those roads were really only a lane and a half but they painted the lines to make it qualify as a two lane! At one point after missing a turn we actually ended up on a gravel road (Google maps does not specify road condition) for about 2 miles. This is not Toms preference, he kept mumbling something about the jeep and how did we end up on gravel....
Again acres and acres of corn, and I forgot to mention the hay. Rolls and rolls of mowed hay. If it's not corn, it is hay, and most farms have both. Blue skies, fluffy clouds, warm and humid. Favorite home color, white shiplap or brick...Favorite barn color, red. Maybe only 85 degrees, but it is not a "dry heat" here! I now carry a bandana around to " mop" my brow!
No stops until Dubuque, just snacked on salami and cheese with some fruit while driving. We took some back road into town that was a single(?) lane, but went through some interesting neighborhoods. I did see one or two yards that actually looked unkempt. ( I need to check my settings in my map app.) Arrived Dubuque at about 2 pm.Baca lagi
