Dose Eagles-- Part 2: On to Decorah, Iowa

JANUARY 22ND, THURSDAY

We drove out to Lock and Dam 10 in Dubuque, Iowa and didn't see any eagles by it, but did see three eagles across the river from the park.  Then drove an unbelievably beautiful stretch of scenery to Balltown and ate at the oldest continually operating restaurant in Iowa, dating to 1852, Breitbach's.

Then drove to Guttenberg, Iowa and saw two more bald eagles at Lock and Dam #11 and two others in a field by a small pond.

The main objective of the whole trip was to see the famed Decorah Bald Eagles which we have been watching on the internet the last several years.  The eggs haven't been laid yet and they are working on the nest and not often there, but we saw both of them.

WITTY OBSERVATIONS:  Always keep several get well cards around.  So, if unexpected guests arrive, they'll think you've been sick and unable to clean.
