Romantic Road Trip

 Tom and I decided to get the GPS, and let it lead us. We didn't really have a plan, but we headed to Iowa, where we found a destination for the Field of Dreams movie set in Dyersville, Iowa.

Andrea stepping out of the cornfield where the players would enter the field

 When we left the Field of Dreams, we headed towards Dubuque, Iowa, and found a winery! We tasted many different flavors, and ended up buying a case of our favorite kind, Spotted Cow!  Luckily, we found a hotel right across the street from the winery.  The hotel staff informed us that there was a karaoke bar just across the street, and that is where we spent the rest of our night!
