Today we went to a place called Horsfall's, which is pretty much a store kind of like a garage sale, with higher prices. There was 2 of those. So, we went to the first one, then had lunch, and then went to the other one. We got some good stuff!! While we were there, there was a group of Amish people walking around. They could not work because of the rain. That was pretty cool too! The kids were so cute!!
We also stopped where I could put one foot in Iowa and one in Minnesota. So, I was in two states at once! Then, we stopped at a place where it overlooks the Mississippi River so you can see it really well. That was very pretty.
After we came home, we went fishing because it stopped raining for a while. I caught 3 Moon Eyes, which I heard are rare for the Mississippi River. We then went in and had dinner, and after that we went back out to fish and my Dad caught a Sun Fish, and Ally caught a Bass! We had not caught anything all the other times we had gone fishing, so it was good to get some today!
We had a great day and are now packing our suitcases. Leaving early in the morning. :(
P.S. In 2 days here, it rained just over 4 inches!!
Miles: 60
States: Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa

The overlook of the Mississippi River. So pretty!
Sorry I haven't been commenting! Looks like you guys are doing a lot of fun stuff! Amelia is taking swim lessons at Lu Hi's pool and we mentioned your name today to the coach. He said - Oh yeah - I know who she is but I haven't met her. Amelia is having fun, but she is exhausted. She is also the only girl! So a little awkward. Say hi to your family!
ReplyDeleteIts ok. Yes, it has been so much fun!! How fun for her! I know she was saying that she would like to do swimming. Yeah, I talked to him for a little bit one day, but that was the sign up day, so he had a lot of people talking to him! Really? The only girl! Does she like the coach?
