OMELET BREAKFAST

We all filled our own bags.


Doyle Van Der Hart (in blue), was our cook.



Don't these look appetizing?

This looks a lot better!

Joe Evers was nice and did my dishes. What a guy!

They were delicious and fun!

TREE MUSEUM

We moved on to Storm Lake to attend the annual rally for the Iowa residents at our park in Arizona. One of the activities suggested was to walk through the Tree Museum.

The trees are in a park along the lake.

Each tree has a small sign underneath explaining where the tree sapling was obtained.

Definitely unique!

A SPIDER'S CREATION

When we were walking down by the Mississippi River Museum, the wheel out in front held a surprise.


I thought it was neat!

FARM LAND AROUND DUBUQUE

When we went back to Dubuque from Rickardsville, I couldn't help but take some pictures.



A little closer look.

OUR HOME REPAIRS

Yesterday, we went to Rickardsville, to check on the progress of our home at The Avalon Body Shop, owned by the Wilgenbusch family.

The front is done. They no longer make the Damon Astoria decal, so it will be plain now, and that's fine with us.

They also have to paint the areas on the doors so they look like this without the dents.

He already has it masked and ready to paint.

Here is the artist.

We can't say enough good things about these neat, cool people. They do a fantastic job and everything to help you. We give them an A+++.

GLITTER FOR PATTI

We have a friend in Grinnell who loves glitter. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if she decorated her car like this!


A closer look.

WALKING AT EAGLE POINT PARK

Eagle Point Park is on the bluff overlooking the lock and dam, and people spend a lot of time watching boats and barges going through .

There's a fishing barge across the river where old duffers can fish or play cards.

Looking toward town.

Looking north up the river.

This eagle is at the entrance/exit.

If you visit Dubuque, be sure and visit the park!
