Fall Beauty in Iowa

No, this isn't Vermont or New Hampshire. It's Iowa! The NE corner of Iowa was missed by the last glacier so is very hilly. That means lots of woods, crooked roads, and funny shaped fields. It also means pretty foliage in the Fall!


Each year, we try to hit the peak season and go on a "leaf drive." This year, the day was October 10, Pat's birthday. This picture was taken a few miles west of Guttenburg, which is on the Mississippi River. It's one of the best "calendar pictures" I've ever taken.
