We are home. The slow internet and difficulty in uploading photos finally did Mom in. We are pretty sure she used up her limit and patience as well. ATT was not the service of choice in the north so any correspondence here and on FB was a trying task at best. Here’s what happened after Dubuque.
Continuing to follow The Great River Road, we reached another destination: Le Claire, Iowa. We again visited Antique Archaeology, home to the television show, American Pickers. While we have never seen any of them, we do enjoy the past revisited.
We went on the Lock and Dam #14 to check out eagles and met up with Le Claire friend, Connie Kroger, and Scotties: Maggie and Annie.
Kansas was our next on the list. This is the KCMO skyline driving to Shawnee, KS.
Where Gordon and Gillis Lauber along with pawrents, Mary and Larry live. Mary had Mom a birthday lunch( yes, she had her birthday on the road) and we had fun in the back yard.
That’s Gordon and Gillis.
This is us on the table. BOL! It was a short but great visit.
See the Scottie( Gillis, we think) in the window saying bye. 🙂 Finally: Oklahoma
On Route 66, we dropped in on The Blue Whale. What an icon. It used to be a swimming place back in the day.
It has much more character than the waterslides of today. Simpler times.
Thanks for traveling along on our adventures. Here’s to: Keeping It Simple. ~Indy and Lucy

What and epic journey. We so enjoyed the ride with you. Really fun to catch up with friends on the way home. I really think you all need a holiday after all your hard work keeping us up to speed. The photos have been nothing short of stunning. I was waiting for the Blue Whale to come up and wasn’t disappointed !! Remembered it from pennyandthecount’s visit last year. Take care Indy and Lucy and Pawrents and take a wee break.

It is fun seeing friends along the road. We’ve got others when we go the Missouri/ Illinois route. It’s a great Scottie Nation.

ATT is the bane of our existence. I supposedly have high speed. I think it is turtle speed. We are glad that you had a wonderful trip and that you arrived home safely.
