So nice to hear about everybody's travels! Jim and I are in Dubuque, Iowa for the 4th of July festivities and checking out our new River-front cottage (what they call cabins in Iowa) that we recently bought! It was my first time ever seeing the place and let me tell you, I was pleasently surprised. I was expecting Koos-Kooskie, but found a quaint, but rustic cottage perfect for summer fun on the Great Missisippi! We are attaching pictures with the hopes that someday you might want to take your kids to actually see the most famous American river, and stay at our place for a few nights! You all have an open invitation to stay whenever you are in the neighborhood....

The Mississippi is unbelievably wide, the land on the left are just islands!

Come Visit!

Nice digs guys! We'd love to get out that way one of these years!

Wow, Shan. That is awesome. Can Jim's cousin Liz and I borrow it for a romantic getaway some weekend, like in the next 2 months?
Your new place looks great. Every state has some wonderful areas and it looks like you've found one of the best in Iowa. You bought it without seeing it first? You've got some good people looking out for you who you can trust to do the best for you. That front yard is awsome and the access to the Mississippi is your ticket to a huge piece of American history.
Does the property come with the golf cart and the boat?
Love,
Bill
I cant believe you can say that Aunt Liz. Its on The Mississippi, you have a sea plane, you could pop in for lunch no sweat, right?
Very nice, Shannon! Landed gentry now!
