We spent a long weekend with our family in Des Moines. This is a photo of our group in Iowa City. We toured an interesting dry stream bed. There were abundant "fossils" of shells, plants and small water animals. We had a grand time stooping, pointing and exploring the area. Our trip also included some "head & foot" games, swimming for the grandgirls, good eats (including some elk steaks) and a little shopping. As always, the time flies by and is entirely too short--we will look forward to our next visit!!
