My son was living in Bellevue, Nebraska and when I realized Iowa was just across the river I ran there just so I could say I did it!<br /><br />Remember, if you find your travels from Arizona happen to send you east on Interstate 10 give me a holler. I’m thinking you’ll probably head south first and come into California on I8, but I want to put it out there. In any case, have a great time and go Hawkeyes!Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04808535651561822721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5884362622170497685.post-11133749504916980932019-12-23T07:18:08.165-06:002019-12-23T07:18:08.165-06:00I'm not a fan of the cold, either...no surpris...I'm not a fan of the cold, either...no surprises there LOL I can tolerate it, most of the time, but that doesn't mean I'm embracing it.
