Road To Iowa Pics

**more than my usual 10 pics... please be patient.

Camping out in Missouri... only a few miles from the farm of the Jesse James' family.

Time for a ball game at Arrowhead Stadium? Ball game at Royal Stadium? Or just another 500 miles in the Red Mustang Convertible?

Welcome to Iowa! Can't really see it in the picture, but there is a horse and buggy to the left on the sunken road to the left.

And now for a stop in Madison County, Iowa, for a tour of 6 bridges... the Bridges of Madison County. This one here is Cedar Bridge, which is the only one that is open to traffic.

The light at the end of the tunnel!

Oh yeah... the Mustang made it through the bridge in good shape!

An old stone schoolhouse that was used until 1947.

J.C. stops for a rest on the steps at the birthplace of John Wayne!

The cafe that was featured in the movie, "The Bridges Of Madison County."

Another bridge... this one is in the city park there in Winterset, Iowa.
