100 Year Anniversary and Visiting Grandparents

This past weekend Nate, the kiddos and I headed south to Nate's hometown, Keokuk, IA.  Keokuk celebrated the 100 year anniversary of the Keokuk Dam.  It was a great experience for us all.  I know Nate really appreciated all the history behind it growing up there, seeing floods go through it and taking part in other year anniversaries.  My favorite part was by far riding the antique trolley across the dam.
 






Besides visiting the dam, we spent our time playing, getting fancy, and doing something that was the highlight of Caleb's weekend and deserves a post all on its own.





Special thanks to Mike and Kathy for your hospitality and we look forward to seeing you again next month! :)

Thanks for coming. We had a great time. It doesn't seem possible that the lock and dam could have even been built then.
Thanks for sharing all the fun times.
