Day 93: Still in Iowa


We spent another day at Tim and Pam’s, much to Ranger’s delight.  He awakes early and immediately wants to head into the house to play with Lola.

After a leisurely breakfast, we headed out to see their houseboat, bought earlier this year.  It’s a “fixer-upper” used boat, but Tim has been working on it for months, making steady progress.  The marina at which it is docked is on a large lake about 40 minutes from their house, and it has docks, a campground, a restaurant, and boat launch and storage.  On a weekday, it was very quiet and peaceful there. While Tim and Dan were checking some things on the boat trailer, I watched a flock of at least a hundred of white pelicans on the lake.





After some beverages and conversation, we went out for pizza for dinner, and it was some of the best I’ve had. 




The two dogs continue to enjoy each other’s company, running around the yard, barking at anyone who goes by, and vying for the attention of anyone who is handy.
