"Is this heaven?" "No, it's Iowa."
I saw this bumper sticker a few times... and it made me smile. :)
Then I laughed out loud when I saw one with the same question that replied:
"No! it's 25 degrees!!" haha :) yep
This is Iowa so far:
Corn and cattle, hills and honey stands, river and railroads, eagles flying and an Eagle Scout built eagles' nest, riverside trailer parks up on stilts and ringing bells in tall church steeples, Mounds from ancient Indian burials and the Mississippi River Trail... but most of all there was...
The Field of Dreams.
"The best thing about this place is what isn't here ... instead of providing images and dreams, it is content to be a mere stage. It falls to each individual guest to supply whatever drama and whatever cast he or she desires."
Another great moment: We weren't aware they closed the gate to the field at 6pm. Apparently neither were the LONG stream of cars that drove in between 5:45 and 6:10 while we were still there.
IF YOU BUILD IT, THEY WILL COME! :)
I love that quote. :) We make our own dreams! Neat! Looks like a fun day (even with the hills and not much shoulder) and very appropriate as you're living your dreams (or dad's). :)
