So as we crossed over the boarder to Iowa on this epic adventure we did end up getting one cache (GC2A17V) before calling it a day. After that we headed for the hotel in Iowa City. Sue had made the arrangements looking for something cheap and near the interstate (so we could make a quick getaway if needed 😉

We pull up to the hotel (in the dark) and we are greeted by something we might have seen in England… kind of, sort of, in a weird midwestern surreal way. Yes, we had found the only Tudor inspired Best Western in the world! There had to have been a sale on gargoyles… Sadly, there was no cache in the parking lot. Secondly, when I checked into the place on Foursquare one of the tips was “bugs.”

We were tired and headed to our room…
