I O Was A long ways away.

Here is the team (Mom and Babe). Now you know where she gets her hair color and her good looks.Yup, we were so glad to get there and hold that baby.

Can't get enough of that babe.

We ventured out to Winterset about 15 miles away, where the bridges of Madison county are. They have five prominent ones including the famous one in the movie. The colors were gourgeous this time of year and we were so amazed at all the trees. They had miles and miles of corn and soybeans. We saw miles of windmills and one thing we never saw were sprinklers or irrigation ditches. They get so much rain they don't ever have to water.


John Wayne's house where he grew up is in Winterset.
Jill was amazing at getting around and finding fun things to do. They were good travel companions. Thanks for the memories.
