The final leg of our Iowa vacation involved three fun stops.
We broke up the long travel day by stopping at the
Fort Custer Maze after a few hours on the road. It's a huge maze with eight stations that you have to find to fill out a card with stamps. We found seven in a little over half an hour, but the last one was a challenge. We were a little hot and tired when we finally found it, but the place was really fun and worth the stop.
The second stop of the day was one I had been wanting to make for a long time. It was so monumental that it will be getting its own post.
Finally, we arrived in Iowa City, our final destination, to visit our dear friends Jeff, Melissa, and their family. Dave and Jeff have known each other since they were three years old. It is always great to see them, and it's pretty special to see the kids playing together. If only we could do that more often!
