We spent the day in New Hampton. Quinn decided to try and make a tunnel through one of the snow banks. We made it about 1/4 of the way thru before it was time for lunch. After lunch we headed out of town toaward chicago. The roads were a little icy but not too bad. We took 20 thru Debuque IA where we crossed the mississipppi. It was a very large river covered in snow, it looked pretty frozen. Once we crossed the river we went thru the town with the home of President U. S. Grant. It had a very nice old main street look to it. Illinois is a big change from Iowa as soon as you cross the river it seems to get hilly no more flat area. We stayed with Joes Cousin Susan Tuesday night. They have a great view of downtown. The car is covered with snow this morning so as soon as we can get that cleared up we are headed to the science museum downtown.
