Here's a list I started of things I want to do on this Midwest Trip.  Some of these are my own ideas and some of them are things folks I am visiting have come up with.

*  Go see something historic in Pittsburgh
*  Go to a Trader Joe's(never been in one)
*  Go have alcoholic milk shakes(again).
*  Go to World Market.
*  Go have Afternoon Tea
*  Go swimming
*  Eat Fried Cheese Curds
*  Visit at least 1 Brewery...ok, maybe 2 or 5
*  Go see some movies....Tammy.....Chef.....Begin Again.......or ?
*  Eat some local foods.....like cheese, brats, fried pork tenderloin sammiches, strange Scandinavian concoctions, etc.
*  Go to liquor stores and find beverages we can't get here
*  Go to a parade
*  Learn to play the bagpipes
*  Go to a county fair
*  Go to Chicago for the day by train
*  Eat at Fabio's restaurant
*  Visit the World's Largest Truck Stop
*  Go see the Largest Lutefisk in the World

Unfortunately I'll be leaving Iowa the day R.A.G.B.R.A.I. starts so I won't get to see that.
It's Iowa's answer to the Tour de France and it runs right through my friend Anne's town but I will have left already when it goes through.


Oh so much to do and see!

Check back over the next few weeks and see which ones I have ticked off my list.....
