The final leg of this trip was a visit to my family in Carroll, Iowa, located about 2 hrs drive west of the Iowa State capital, Des Moines (for the Aussie's, Iowa's the next state to the west of the state that Chicago is in). I was all ready for a relaxing weekend of eating, gossiping and card playing (in that order) but my family had other plans.....
It all began well as I woke up to the smell of freshly baked carmel rolls, followed by pepperoni pizza and root beer for lunch and to top it off German Chocolate cake. A nice relaxing day out on the deck catching up on the news and a few family pics.
