If you're taking Hwy 20, you'll get real close to our house in Cedar
Falls.  If you are a baseball fan and liked the movie Field of
Dreams, you can stop in Dyersville(like 30 min. west of Dubuque) and
see the ball field and house they used for the movie.  The old VW bus
that Costner and JE Jones rode around in is somewhere else
however!!  It's still a popular tourist attracting this many years
after the movie came out.
