More Mainly Maine Redwahine revised

[Bethers]

Next time I head east, I plan to get to Maine again. You've made me want to get there now - but it'll have to wait a few years.

I have relatives still in Iowa (my mom was raised there). Pretty basic foods - lots of meat - any kind. Corn this year might not be so good - they are still having a drought, unfortunately. The Amana Colonies (already mentioned) is pretty much German cuisine - lots of meat and potatoes. Like already asked, what part of IA will you be in? Northeastern IA has lots of Norwegians - can find different food there.

I wil be in the Le Claire / Davenport area.

We're still hoping for at least one trip cross country. I'd love to take a northern route starting around labor day, be in NE around October (best time of year there), then go straight south to Florida, across on a southern route to San Diego then north to home around late March. It's on my bucket list. I grew up in NH, still have lots of family and friends back east and those lobster + steamer pictures are making my mouth water!
