Travelling to Freeport, Illinois, through Iowa

We left Chanhassen and decided to travel cross-country to avoid the Minneapolis/St Paul traffic.  This led us to US 52 through Rochester, MN, and on into Iowa.  We headed to Dubuque, Iowa, for the bridge crossing the Mississippi river into Illinois.
A sight along the Mississippi river at Guttenberg, Iowa.  Perhaps the colors a still heading for peak color but we took what we found for often a rainstorm and wind fells the leaves prematurely.

Another view of the river.

Sue buying presents for special friends at this entrepreneur at the wayside.  Christmas maybe?

A friendly person at the wayside snapped this picture.

We enjoyed the colors of the fields in the next few pictures.


This photo showed the beutiful greens and bowns of the countryside in Iowa.  Many crops are being harvested.
