Cruising through Iowa to Illinois

Oliver keeping you posted...

The folks have been on a bit of an R and R here in Peoria, Illinois. After leaving South Dakota we cruised into Iowa and headed to Forest City to the Winnebago factory... Iowa is just green, green, green and really makes you see what small farms are all about.  Just farm after farm after farm.  Robin looked at all the darling little farm houses and wanted them all.  

We finally made it to Forest City Iowa and the Winnebago factory... Camping in their visitor center parking lot where they provide electrical hookups.  The morning of the tour it poured rain but the group was good sized and they boarded the bus and toured the oldest and largest RV manufacturer.  


Alan looked at all the beautiful Winnebago Motorhomes and wanted them all... not really because he loves his Oliver and doesn't want to make me jealous.  

They continued on through Iowa and the little towns and farms... great little towns with cute old houses and main streets.  

Finally we arrived in Peoria Illinois to visit Dail and Sue.  They went to Eureka College with their granddaughter (Dail and Sue's), where she will be attending in the fall.  

This is where RonaldReagan attended college and they have a big  museum there and a huge RR presence on campus.  Alan was with his tribe at last. 


We are all taking a rest and staying in the RV park with full hookups enjoying long hot showers and life is good.
