We were in Iowa for only a short time. The entry to Iowa from Minnesota is seamless; a regional constant is the reminder that midwestern states feed the world. We passed acres of corn and soybeans, perfectly grown and harvested. State of the art equipment stands ready in the fields, giving witness to the richness of the land and the skill of those who till the soil. The "Conservative Chronicle" available at a rest stop reminded me of Michele Bachmann's presidential campaign and her Iowa roots.
We headed west on I80 at Des Moines, heading toward Nebraska. It's all starting to look new to me. I have not been this way before.
