Well, two of my best friends are now married! I spent about 10 days off the trail in Iowa City, running around, doing bridesmaid things, helping make things run smoothly as best I could. Honestly, I expected a bit more downtime to catch up on blogs than I actually got. I enjoyed the break, butContinue reading “Back on the Road”

The Rush to Iowa City
The next few days were a blur of speed for me. I needed to get to Evansville in time for a rental car reservation to get to my best friend’s wedding.

When I arrived I saw a sign for a biblicalContinue reading “Hounds of the Hinterlands”
A Grave Week

This site was particularly important to me, not only because there was historical documentation that Meriwether Lewis had been in that exact spot in 1803.
