Corn!

It was an exciting day today. My first time in Iowa so it's worth "writing home about". Highlights along the road... Site of the first US train robbery... Corn... Grinnell College (we did a rah rah for you Rosemary)... Corn... Cedar County, home of Quakers who were big in the Abolitionist Underground RR and where (listen up KK) John Brown trained his followers... Corn... The World's Largest Truckstop... And corn (or did I already mention that?)

Next came Illinois. Highlights... Birthplace of Ronald Reagan... Corn... Electrolux... Corn... Chicago... Traffic... Corn...

Indiana... Corn... (The amount of state we needed to cross did get smaller after all.)

Finally Ohio! What other birthday girl could (or would want to) celebrate in 4 states. She had a very memorable birthday dinner... And, in case you're wondering, she's blowing out a grape on the dish of humus to make a wish. (Wishes always come true this way.) Those grapes are Moon Drops and are DE-licious! (Thank you Yvonne & Garry to turning us on to them!)

Trivia from yesterday... The youngest Pony Express rider was 11.

For today... What is the only state where two of its borders are formed by navigable rivers?

And a second question since we're almost home. The photo below was taken in what state? Iowa? Illinois? Indiana? Happy Birthday Judy!
