Take a look at Effigy Mounds National Monument if you're in the Eastern Iowa area.
The bluffs along the Mississippi are truly gorgeous, the landscape here is often arresting. I am really enjoying little excursions to close by sights, there is a lot of state to see within short drives.
Overlook from Pike's Peak, where the Wisconsin River right angles into the wide Mississippi. |
Pikes Peak Iowa was named by the same man who's namesake is Pikes Peak in Colorado. This Iowa landmark was packed with campers and picnickers enjoying Labor Day.
It's been a week and finally we are heading out to make a calendar and put push pins on a map. Hopefully we'll be able to connect some dots and make a plan for our next few months. I am using this blog as a public thought board for me (us): the plan is through these public postings, I (we) will narrow our focus, and clarify our mission for next step on the journey.
