Well folks, we didn't fall off the world....just slipping back to home through Iowa...well, we did have a little blip on the radar screen. The bearing on one of the wheels of the trailer went out while we were traveling from the Badlands into Iowa. We were just a few miles from an exit so help wasn't too far away. On to Sioux Falls, Grimes, Iowa, Colona, Illinois, Joliet, Illinois and now Warsaw, Indiana, Hoffman Lake Campground. We are in the country...lots of corn fields, soybeans, etc. It is very serene, tranquil and we just about have the place to ourselves, probably until the weekend. Know that fall is here because the trees are turning and the corn is ready to be harvested.
While we were waiting for the trailer to be repaired, we met Jun Wang, a trucker from China who now lives in Canada. Unfortunately, he had had an accident, wrecked his rig and needed a ride to Sioux Falls to get a plane home. So he rode with us and we chatted for about 120 miles. Haven't heard from him but we sure hope he made it home okay.
Well today we are going to an Amish Farm for a tour and lunch...more later from your Happy Travelers, on the way home but always enjoying the journey.

So many days have gone by without word from our happy travelers. I look forward to hearing about the Amish farm tour.
