End of July already??!!


Wow - Summer is flying by!
Went to Independence this past weekend for a friend's 40th birthday.
On my way home I stopped by Cedar Rock State Park.
When Iowa businessman Lowell Walter died in August of 1981, he and his wife, Agnes, left their dream home, Cedar Rock, to the Iowa Conservation Commission and the people of Iowa. Designed by the famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright, the residence lies on a limestone bluff overlooking the Wapsipinicon River near Quasqueton in Buchanan County.

I'm voting for Cedar Rock State Park. Although it is pretty far behind the leader (by 130,000 votes) perhaps we can catch up!
