Couldn't post yesterday because the
band-width at the KOA campground where we stayed was just not much to
write home about. Am continuing to make image across Iowa, and
tonight we're just inside Minnesota at Jackson. Covered a lot of
ground today and saw mostly 6-inch high corn, and just sprouting soy
beans.
However, yesterday yielded a couple of
interesting images. This one is in Adair, IL. Talked to a local and
he told us the Pool Hall is still in use....really? Would have loved
to go inside, but not possible. Just inside the front door is a
barber's chair with a pool table further back in the single room. We
were told they play pool every Thursday evening, and if you want, the
owner of the building's wife will cut your hair.
Down the road a bit is the town of Good
Hope, IL. Driving through we were mildly surprised to find they use
pink trash bins. Stopped a guy coming down the street on in riding
mower. He had just comed from mowing his mother's yard at the house
where he was born. He said it was just the town's way of supporting
breast cancer research.
